Hi all.
I'm trying to install Arch on a Dell Latitude E6400 laptop. Unfortunately, the network card is not being detected. The wiki pages ( http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dell_Latitude_E6x00 & http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dell_Latitude_E6400 ) don't seem to mention anything unusual with the ethernet, but on my machine:
ifconfig -a only shows the lo interface,
hwdetect --show-net only shows NET : ppp_generic s1hc (which I'm guessing is the modem)
lspci | grep Ethernet shows 00:19.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation Unknown device 10f5 (rev 03)
I tried adding the e1000 module to /etc/rc.conf during the installation, but that hasn't made a difference.
What should I look at next? Presumably I've done something daft since nothing unusual was mentioned in the wiki, but I'm not sure where to go from here.
Cheers

Hate to do this, but... --bump--

I think that the correct drive is the e1000e and not the e1000. What you get when doing
modprobe e1000e
(Look at dmesg output)
EDIT: I obtained all this information with a google search, I never seen a Intel 82567 card.

Actually, bumping is fine after a month with no response. 24 hours isn't even unreasonable in this case.

# modprobe e1000e
FATAL: Module e1000e not found.
That'd probably be why it disappeared from my rc.conf file as well.
I must have installed an older version of Arch by mistake - am grabbing the latest one now and will try adding the module.
@kazuo - sorry about asking daft questions on the forum. I must have missed the google result that paired "10f5 (rev 03)" with e1000e.
Sorry about the bump as well.
