Hi,

I can't compile Intel e1000e drivers on proxmox, any help would be appreciated. Here is the error I get:

Thank You.

Why do you would like to compile? This driver is in kernel?
Click to expand...
Because the second NIC I have (The one I'm trying to compile a driver for) isn't showing up as active. I can see the green light blinking so it's definitely plugged in correctly. Makes me think that maybe there's a driver issue?
