I've tried to install Ethernet e1000e driver version 3.8 from https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/15817/Intel-Network-Adapter-Driver-for-PCIe-Intel-Gigabit-Ethernet-Network-Connections-Under-Linux- on Fedora 31. It doesn't install.

It doesn't install because the specs of RPM has wrong dependencies like "fileutils". This dependency is wrong on Fedora 31 because they have replaced it with "coreutils"-package. This driver is not available on Fedora 31. Whom can I contact to help in this?

Thank you for posting in Intel Ethernet Communities.

 

Before we proceed, let me check if you tried to submit the driver for enhancement request in sourceforge website? If not yet, please try it using the link below:

Thanks. This new driver is integrated in 5.7 linux kernel. So, one need to wait for that new kernel release.
