I have a desktop too, MBoard Intel DP35DP with: 00:19.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82566DC-2 Gigabit Network Connection (rev 02)
After installing Intrepid 8.10, the version without the blacklisted drivers, I saw no network. The device was unlisted. On the same machine I have Ubuntu Gutsy (latest and updated), but after the installation of Ibex no problem of connectivity in Gutsy. If you are interested in: on the same machine (again) I have a third OS: WindowsXP. Here I had to reinstall the network card, like it was a new one. After that, no problem detected. Maybe that OS recognize the hardware by an ID (or something like this) stored in the MB and detected a change. And this mean something changed on the hardware. I've decided to leave the Ibex OS unused until the patch or the final release. It's the first time I install a beta version, now I know I must be careful. If you want more detail just ask.
