OK, I figured out one mistake -- I was doing sudo ./vpp rather than
systemctl start vpp.service. So that solves the modprobe issue. I still get
weird stuff from "vppctl show pci". This time it is showing that my driver
is e1000. If that were true, then I would not see the GigabitEthernet0/8/0
interface in "vppctl show int" -- isn't that correct?
