Hey,
nice to see development continue with a new name. But I got a problem after du with the new kernel 2.6.35.
My network interface eth0 got no link anymore. Ceni reconfiguration doesn't help, but wireless is runnig without problems.
Any suggestions?
dmesg

| Does Ceni see it? Why not reconfigure it with Ceni to see if it works |

| I tried reconfiguration with ceni and it recognize the interface. So I can setup a static ip address, but still no link (eth0: link is not ready). Pinging the interface works but no other network device. This is clear because there is no link to the switch. Its like a deactivated interface. |

May be you need firmware-linux or even firmware-linux-nonfree installed to make this nic work?!
Sorry i do not remember exactly how i got this working on one of my previous notebooks  |

Intel e1000/ e1000e (in contrast to e100!) network cards don't require any loadable firmware, furthermore e1000 (PCI cards) and e1000e (PCIe core) drivers differ quite a lot and should not be mixed up.
Regarding the actual problem, I unfortunately can't help a whole lot, as I don't see any corresponding reports upstream nor can test it myself (only Intel 82541GI, e1000 here - working fine). A look through the complete dmesg output for unrelated (perhaps ACPI or MSI) messages might give further insight. |

Try
# rmmod e1000e
# modrpobe e1000e
BTW, do you have full duplex 1000Mbit? |

Sounds like e1000e could be broken on 2.6.35?
I myself have an e1000 (no e) interface on my Thinkpad and it works fine. |

| e1000e as a whole doesn't seem to be broken, not only does it work for dibl, I also see no relevant bugs upstream or elsewhere. However side effects of regressions in other subsystems (like I mentioned APCI and MSI support are prime candidates, among others) could impose subtile breakage on other drivers, like e1000e. Additional the exact chipset revision (lspci -nn | grep -i intel.*ethernet) would be interesting. |

cge-nogo, why not post the output of lspci -nn | grep -i intel.*ethernet as slh mentioned. There could be a variant that's not known about.
Another thing to check is the cable. Is it firmly plugged in? |

Okay this is the output:
Code:
lspci -nn | grep -i ethernet

I know you have to recomment that, but I wouldn't bother you if I didn't checked it before. And well with 2.6.34 it works fine. Sometimes I think I have old configuration somewhere around. |

| Okay bad news about my old configuration idea. I tried the new live cd and the same problem appears. Still no link. |

It might have something to do with IRQ 19? Some systems have issues with that one. Do you see any errors/warnings with:
Code:
cat /var/log/messages |grep irq
|
|
|
