SRU justification:
Hanksville NIC (82577/82588) is a Single-Port GbE ASIC supporting Intel 09' platforms (Piketon/Calpella) which time to market is ahead of Karmic released. The e1000e driver supporting Hanksville has been accepted by upstream which will show up in .31 kernel.
We're requesting a driver update for Jaunty, for Karmic it should be supported by nature.

The stand-alone e1000e driver which is compatible with .28 kernel is now available on "http://sourceforge.net/projects/e1000/".
