[Bug 263555] Re: [intrepid] 2.6.27 e1000e driver places Intel ICH8 and ICH9 gigE chipsets at risk

[sam tygier]

The patch is already committed to ubuntu git branch of the kernel. All
ubuntu packages have been frozen for a few days for the beta release. I
dont think there is any chance of putting a new kernel in the beta at
this stage. After the beta is out there will most likely be a kernel
update with the fix/workaround. I would expect that this will be in the
next few days, assuming nobody finds any problems with it.

There should also be a restore tool quite soon, for anyone who has had
their card corrupted. I am not sure if any ubuntu tester were actually
effected.
