I have sent an email to sta...@vger.kernel.org <mailto:e...@vger.kernel.org>
and to David Miller <da...@davemloft.net <mailto:da...@davemloft.net>>.
But mail to sta...@vger.kernel.org <mailto:sta...@vger.kernel.org> couldn't be
delivered. Is the email address right?
We’re look forward to e1000e fix in Debian new release.
