Missing eth0, can use only wlan0

I'm missing eth0 in my ifconfig

ifconfig -a
lo        Link encap:Local Loopback  
          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0
          inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host
          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:16436  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 
          RX bytes:0 (0.0 b)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)

wlan0     Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 58:94:6B:A3:9B:A0  
          inet addr:192.168.1.30  Bcast:192.168.1.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::5a94:6bff:fea3:9ba0/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:9483 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:8326 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 
          RX bytes:6150973 (5.8 Mb)  TX bytes:1176654 (1.1 Mb)

here is my lspci

lspci | egrep -i net
00:19.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82577LM Gigabit Network Connection (rev 06)
02:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Advanced-N 6200 (rev 35)

When I was installing clean Arch installation [netinstall], wired connection was working fine. I also checked BIOS and eth is enabled. I'm using wicd for networking and eth&wlan were working all the time allright without any setup or so.
Thx for help

Re: Missing eth0, can use only wlan0

try using iproute2 instead of ifconfig to see if it gives the same or different result.

ip addr

Re: Missing eth0, can use only wlan0

Is the e1000e module loaded? What does dmesg say when you try to manually load it?

my lovely e1000e
I blacklisted this becouse if I load e1000e and use laptop-mode-tools my laptop hangs on reboot/poweroff.

But thx, If I enabled e1000e eth0 immediately showed.
