e1000
(probably; I've used the eepro100 driver for some Intel EtherExpress

To load a module on a running system, use the 'modprobe' command (as
root). Ex:
# modprobe e1000
To have the system automatically load the module each time it boots,
list the module in /etc/modules. Normally you will use a text editor
to edit that file. If you wanted to add that module without using a
text editor, though, the following command will suffice :
# echo e1000 >> /etc/modules
