Regarding possible support for the Intel 82579LM and 82579V in Squeeze:

Many (but not all) devices including an Intel 82579 series NIC have a
hardware fault at 100Mbps that results in packet loss that is worked
around by the following recent patch:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/109926/

Upstream commit: 0ed013e28fe853244f4972cf18d8e2bd62eeb8fc

It would be necessary to cherry pick this in order for these NICs to
function at 100Mbps.

More detail is provided in bug #644096.


Thanks,

Terry
