Public bug reported:
I am not sure whether its a problem with Feisty or the kernel or the
e1000 driver but here is what I do to reproduce them
* Install 7.04
* Install kernel 2.20.3 source
* copy working config to .config
* make menuconfig
* make-kpkg -initrd etc ....
* dpkg -i
* reboot
With the custom kernel
* The on board Intel NIC will not show up in dmesg
* It wont be usable upon insmod
I have seen this on more than 1 machine. For example, on a T60, I
observed the following
[ 658.528000] Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Driver - version 7.3.15-k2-NAPI

If I reboot with the regular kernel, I get

Is this a Feisty/Ubuntu issue? Or is this a e1000 interaction issue
(with Feisty)?
