e1000-devel Mailing List for Formerly Intel Ethernet Drivers

I'm having a hard time trying to load the modules for the e1000 card, my
system description:
OS: Redhat 7.1 no updates appllied:
Internal eepro100
two pci e1000 cards
SMP Configured for 2 PIII 1.26GHz

When i try to insmod the e100 i got this:

[root@localhost /root]# insmod e1000
Using /lib/modules/2.4.2-2/kernel/drivers/net/e1000.o
/lib/modules/2.4.2-2/kernel/drivers/net/e1000.o: init_module: No such
device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including
invalid IO or IRQ parameters
[root@localhost /root]#

The other card (eepro100) is working perfectly.
I've already searched in google and the only thing I could find was a reply
saying UPGRADE TO REDHAT 7.3, the problem is that for interoperability
issues i'm not able to do this, all this package is on an IBM machine in
which if I break this configuration i would loose technical support, please
help.

Luke, I'm your father

What patch must be applied to a 2.4.19 vanilla kernel before being able 
to use the e1000-4.3.15
 diffs.  I only ask this because the vanilla kernel comes without the 
e1000 files...were these diffs
 for RedHat or something?
