Hi Peeps,
Please can someone email to me at e1000 at geograph.co.za
the *updated* *Intel* or *Sourceforge* (*not* the one on the CD) driver.
I downloaded and compiled both the v7033 pointed to at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/e1000/ 7.0.33 and also v7038 offered by
Intel but got the following boot error (dmesg):
e1000: version magic '2.6.12-19-386 386 gcc-4.0' should be
'2.6.12-19-386 386 gcc-3.4'
A manual modprobe or insmod /lib/........
both return:
error inserting e1000 (/lib/.....) Invalid module format.
By default breezy installs gcc-4.0 but has gcc-3.3 (not 3.4) on the CD.
All I did was to create a link (called gcc-3.4) to gcc-4.0 and then ran
make install.
I cannot easily install gcc-3.3 as I have no lan connection on this box
- but I can get the driver across to it via a USB stick.
TIA,
Zoltan
