Well, I believe we have an answer:
http://www.intel.com/support/network/adapter/pro100/sb/CS-030873.htm
The motherboard definitely is PCIe 2.0 . The page suggests these cards
for use with a PCIe2.0 system:
# Intel® PRO/1000 PT Quad Port LP Server Adapter (P/N EXPI9404PTL)
# Intel® Gigabit ET Quad Port Server Adapter (P/N E1G44ET)
# Intel® Gigabit ET2 Quad Port Server Adapter (P/N E1G44ET2)
Notably there's not a PF option shown, so we're going to have to think
about that. But in any case, do you think these models will function
with 8.0? 8.0 plus a patch? .... or is 8.1 the only option?
Thanks,
Charles

Well, if the system doesnt show the hardware in a PCI scan there isn't
much my driver can do :)
The last line in your log says 'eth0', what's that about?
You could try booting 8.1 64 bit, you can also send me all the details
about the board, just to
make sure I can get the exact one and then I'll try it here. This is
quad port fiber, right? I was
thinking this was PCI ID 0x1527, 82580 adapter. The support is in
HEAD now.

Jack, I'm afraid that with the card _not_ installed we get
identical pciconf output. We're running 32 bit simply because
that's where we got rolling with our product, and have not yet
made the call to invest in the effort required to make the jump to
64. Do you think that our being at 32 bit could be a factor here?
So far the same card model has been tested on several of these
server appliances, so I doubt it's a bad-slot situation.
In case it's helpful, I've attached a boot log. Anything else
that I can provide that might help?
Thank you,
Charles

UH, did you do that with the adapter in the system?? I do not
see the ID I
expected
to see. Some reason you're running 32 bit??
Can you run the pciconf with the adapter in and out, compare
and tell me
what its
ID is? All the unidentified devices I see are in the 0x3XXX
range and those
are not
network devices.
Maybe its a bad slot?

code.
Show me what the output looks like, and I'll get ya fixed
up, dont worry :)

Hello,
We're trying to work with newly purcharsed Intel
EXPi9404PF NICs ("Intel
PRO/1000 PF Quad Port Server Adapter") but they do not
seem to be detected
(no ports showing with 'ifconfig -l'). We're having
no problems with the
2-port version of the same card -- is there a known
issue with the 4-port
version?
We've tried three different cards of this model, all
with same result.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Charles
