Trying to use preupgrade. after reboot preupgrade complained that it could not find a driver. It presented an enormous list of drivers. My intel mb likes the e1000e driver, but only e100 and e1000 were available. Does a solution exist for this problem? Thanks Henk

What version are you on? Which kernel version do you get after reboot? Have you tried the newest rawhide?

I use a flly updated F9; lsmod |grep e1000 shows e1000e So it seems that the driver is available in my system. Preupgrade does not pick it up for some reason. Maybe the maintainer did not know the problem has become history?
