Rmmod e1000e (ignore any error if the module wasn't loaded)ġ5) Once you have confirmed that the new module loads correctly and that network connectivity works, update the kernel initrd image with the new module (as root):Īt this point, your Ethernet connection should become available, and should stay available after reboot.

# cp e1000e.ko.xz /lib/modules/4.4.39-desktop-1.mga5/updates/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000e/ġ4) Unload the existing e1000e module (assuming it was loaded, but that's unlikely), and reload it

# mv /lib/modules/4.4.39-desktop-1.mga5/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000e/e1000e.ko.xz /root/ġ3) Install the new module in the updates folder of your kernel: Move the file to your /root/ folder to keep a copy (don't delete it with rm, just in case you would still need it): Identify the original module to remove (don't forget to update the kernel version in the paths below, if different): You need to be root at this point if that's not already the case.Identify your kernel: rw-r-r- 1 root root 776040 Feb 10 00:35 e1000e.ko.xzġ2) Now, you need to remove the original module from the kernel your are using and replace it with the new module. Make: Leaving directory '/usr/src/kernel-4.4.39-desktop-1.mga5'ġ0) Strip the executable from debug symbols (reduces the size of the file)ġ1) Compress the newly generated e1000e.ko file with xz (it will get a '.xz' suffix): You have two lines to change.ĩ) Compile the module with the simple 'make' command (if needed, install make first with urpmi as root: 'urpmi make'): try step 9 and resume at step 8 if it doesn't workĨ) Edit (with vi or your preferred text editor) the file netdev.c. If you have bios v701, you have to disable the NVM checksum check first, execute step 8 below.įor any other bios version, well.

e1000e: enp0s31f6 NIC Link is Up 1000 Mbps Full Duplex, Flow Control: Rx/TxĤ) To download the latest Intel driver e1000e for the I219-V, this link can be used:ĥ) The name of the driver tar file that I used is: e1000e-3.3.5.3.tar.gzĦ) Untar the file, and go in the src directory (no need to use the root user at this point):ħ) If you have the motherboard bios v222, you can simply build the driver and install it, skip to step 9. If I remember correctly, there is a single line logged with the older BIOS v222, as the e1000e module doesn't even attempt to start (it doesn't recognize the hardware as supported).ģ) Example of the successful e1000e module startup after commenting out the exit command following the NVM checksum check (note the error message, which I left on purpose - it has no effect anymore): e1000e 0000:00:1f.6: The NVM Checksum Is Not Valid e1000e 0000:00:1f.6: Interrupt Throttling Rate (ints/sec) set to dynamic conservative mode If anyone has the same issue and is interested by the procedure, here it is:ġ) General info about the Ethernet adapter:Ġ0:1f.6 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation Ethernet Connection (2) I219-VĢ) Example of failed e1000e module startup with the latest Z270F motherboard BIOS v701 from Asus:

10th, 2017) BIOS from Asus, v701, I actually had to recompile the Intel driver after disabling the NVM checksum check to make it work.

With the original motherboard BIOS v222, the Ethernet port could be made functional with the latest drivers from Intel. I'm running Mageia 5 with all updates, and the Ethernet port was not recognized (network icon with red cross).
