That seems unlikely.  When I replace "alias eth0 e1000" with "alias eth0 
e100e" in my module configuration I lose the network interface entirely. 
  "ip link" does not mention it and it does not appear in 
"/sys/class/net".  Switching back to "alias eth0 e1000" restores the 
ability to use the network interface.

It seems pretty clear from my end that the e1000e driver is *not* 
recognizing and driving my Intel 82566DC ethernet device.
