How to Fix E1000E in Ubuntu
When new computer hardware is made available, Ubuntu and other Linux distributions will need to catch up with drivers for the hardware. The E1000E refers to the Linux driver for specific Intel network adapters. In Linux Kernel 2.6.27, the driver for this adapter made it unusable. This particular kernel was in use for Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex Beta, so Beta testers suddenly found themselves no longer able to connect to the Internet using their Intel network adapter.
