Folks

I know that support for the network adaptors supported by the 'e1000' driver have been removed from the base distribution. However, I have exactly that controller (Broadcom Gigabit Ethernet PCI, not PCIe). Is there a way for me to add support for that on Centos 8.1? Perhaps a driver in an RPM package?

Thanks

David

The e1000 driver should be in the 8.1 kernel:

$ modinfo e1000 filename: /lib/modules/4.18.0-147.3.1.el8_1.x86_64/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000/e1000.ko.xz version: 7.3.21-k8-NAPI license: GPL description: Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Driver author: Intel Corporation, linux.nics@intel.com rhelversion: 8.1
