82571EB based ethernet card not working

[mgiammarco]

Hello,
I have two 82571EB based (e1000e) network cards that do not work with proxmox.
The cards are recognized by kernel but light on the ports are off and if I put a cable they do not see it.
Before loading os the ports light are on (green and orange blinking)
If I boot with a centos livecd they work perfectly.
Searching on internet someone suggest to compile latest intel drivers. I have done it but I was suprised that I got no improvement.

Can you please help me?

Thanks,
Mario

Our kernel include latest e1000e driver from:

which driver did you compile?

which driver do you use on the centos live cd? I do not think these are latest.

do latest drivers works on a centos installation? if not, submit a bug report to the driver maintainer = Intel.
