Hi all,

My problem is I can't have the network up on my laptop; I get a
message stating there is no /net/ether0 when I try to ip/ipconfig
for example. According to the wiki, that means the ethernet card in my
laptop does not seem to be supported under plan9.

Given it's an intel gigabit pro/1000 (which is supposed to be supported)
I found it surprising, so I tried to force the use of the igbe/igbepcie
drivers with an entry in plan9.ini but to no avail.

Am I missing something here? Or is it just that my specific chipset
(it's a 82566MM) is not yet supported by these drivers? 
If yes, how hard would it be to have it so? Where should I start to do
that?

Thanks,
Mathieu.
