OK so driver kmod-e1000e supports 8086:1502 (entry 00:19.0 on your list above)

Did you do Nick's instructions? you should then be able to configure the NIC as normal

If so and it still doesn't work, can you post the output of 'modinfo e1000e'

Yes I done the nicks instructions. After a reboot, I have eth2 appeared in my configuration ip but it doesnt work.

ifup eth2 : give me : «The e1000e device is not present, eth2 initialization will be delayed»

grep eth /etc/modprobe.conf:

alias eth0 via-rhine
alias eth1 via-rhine
alias eth2 e1000e

modinfo e1000e :

I don't know If it can change anything, but my mac address refer to hwaddress.com/?q=44%3A37%3Ae6%3A47%3A79%3Ad2 . It's a foxconn network adapter working with an intel82579LM.

I don't know what you've done but you've switched your e1000e adaptor from eth0 to eth2. Can you check if you have an /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth2? If you don't, please clone the eth1 or eth0 one. Then change DEVICE to eth2 and fix the HWADDR to what you have just posted. Make sure that HWADDR is not listed in the other ifcfg-ethX files. Also, because you have 2 adaptors the same you should fix the HWADDR for each of those so they do not swap when rebooting. For working interfaces you can see the MAC address with "ifconfig | grep HWa". Then it is probably best to reboot (although it is a bit of a sledgehammer).

I have not changed anything, at first I installed two DFE-538TX. In the first system startup, the first thing I saw is that eth0 and eth1 who is respectively the 2 d-link (via-rhine). Later, I asked why I did not see 3 interface and that's where I post on this forum. I cloned the file from the ETH1 to produce a configuration file for eth2, which is actually the e1000e. You told me to name it eth0, but I ignored this detail because it is currently the eth0 interface of the via-rhine (d-link) and is fully functional.

Indeed, I can redo the configuration with the other mac address like you suggest. I'll keep you in touch, i'm working late tonight, I'll be back tomorrow.

Thank you very much Nick !!!!!!!!

Once again - big thanks to Tim for maintaining that repo - saved me a bunch of time this AM! I owe you some beers when I see you Tim....
