Re: [9front] Need help with configuring the Internet

This is what I have when I type in 'pci -v' :

0.31.6: net 02.00.00 8086/15bc 11 0:a1100000 131072
       Intel Corporation Ethernet Connection (7) I219-V

So I'm assuming this is the case where the driver is there,
and I just need to add the PCI ID to the driver?
