In this case e1000 stops supporting them only if you enable e1000e too. No e1000e, e1000 still does those IDs. For now, if I understand it correctly. And it seems to print a warning. So it doesn't work if you make e1000e a module and don't load it. > And no, I'm not talking about some theoretical "this could happen" thing. > I hit exactly that with commit > 040babf9d84e7010c457e9ce69e9eb1c27927c9e Right. Now it's a different situation, though. -- Krzysztof Halasa -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
