Intel e100 and e1000 drivers are on the mainline Linux kernel tree for a long time now. You should use the drivers that come with the kernel, unless you experience problems. Often a newer driver is available from the e1000 project site on sourceforge earlier than that it is merged in the kernel.

Issues
Hints
- If you have problems, try disabling MSI support in the kernel.
- Don't complain here about a bug that has not been reported to the kernel bugzilla or the e1000 bug tracker
- If a gigabit ethernet link won't stay up, try tunning at 100Mbit/s. If it works, the cabling is your main suspect.
