As Reported on http://www.elledi.it/shop/product_info.php?products_id=52288447 http://www.elledi.it/shop/product_info.php?products_id=52288447

vi /usr/local/driver/drivers/e1000e-1.2.20/src/netdev.c

replaced

VLAN_GROUP_ARRAY_LEN by VLAN_N_VID

make install

OK

This issue was fixed with a driver that posted back in Feb. 2011. So if you would use the latest driver this would not be an issue for you. Please alway try the very latest driver before reporting issues as the issue may have already been fixed.

Thanks for the report. We really think you should be using the latest driver though.

Driver is the latest

The 1.3.10a and the 1.3.17 have been posted. The first one on Feb. and the very latest in May. They can be found on our Sourceforge site (e1000.sf.net) and on the support.intel.com site. Both have this fix in it.
