OK. Since this type of question has already been asked and will proba= bly be
asked again and again, I will explain it on the website.

For the record, here is how you should search for a supported NIC:

# grep -r 'RTE_PCI_DEV_ID_DECL.*82575' lib
RTE_PCI_DEV_ID_DECL(PCI_VENDOR_ID_INTEL, E1000_DEV_ID_82575EB_COPPER)
RTE_PCI_DEV_ID_DECL(PCI_VENDOR_ID_INTEL, =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0E1000_DEV_ID_82575E= B_FIBER_SERDES)
RTE_PCI_DEV_ID_DECL(PCI_VENDOR_ID_INTEL, E1000_DEV_ID_82575GB_QUAD_COPPER)<= br>
So your NIC 82575EB is supported.

As you can see, the source code is a good documentation.
To all users, please try to search in it before asking questions.
