It would appear that your hardware is not being detected correctly.  I would 
have expected something like:

04:02.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82540EM Gigabit Ethernet 
Controller (rev 02)

A quick google check seems to indicate you should download the latest 
drivers from Intel.

He found it finally:
I was finally able to find the driver. It is the e1000-7.6.5.tar.gz file. I installed it and it works. The network card is detected and works okay.

Why are there so many different versions?  This is not the latest, or at 
least not the latest according to the link I found.
