My problems is that the e1000 drivers suplied with ver 5 does not work with the Intel 
Pro 1000T.  On ver 4.1.2 Allen compiled the driver for me and I 
can not sell and update a systems with e1000 on ver. 5 because of drivers problem.  I 
could compile but I do not have a system with the current 
e-smith kernel with the compiler.  The easy solution would be for Mitel to provide 
this service at a cost to reseller or provide the way for us to do it 
with the current product.
