OvmfPkg: update -D E1000_ENABLE from Intel PROEFI v.07 to BootUtil v.22
Jiaxin reports that the OvmfPkg/README instructions for downloading the Intel PROEFI drivers, and the filenames in OvmfPkg/OvmfPkg*.fdf for incorporating the same in the OVMF binaries, are no longer up to date; the download link has stopped working. Additionally, the IA32 driver binary is no more distributed by Intel. Update OvmfPkg/README with new download instructions, and adapt the OVMF FDF files. With this driver in use for QEMU's e1000 NIC, the DH shell command prints, as Controller Name, "Intel(R) PRO/1000 MT Network Connection". I successfully tested DHCP and ping from the UEFI shell.

Hi, I'd learned that currently only 1024*768 resolution is supported for win7, however, i'd like to know why and is there any plan for further support for other resolutions on win7 system.

Hi,
(1) I don't understand how your question relates to this edk2 commit. In the future, please ask such questions on the edk2-devel mailing list: https://lists.01.org/mailman/listinfo/edk2-devel
(2) Under UEFI Windows 7, you can use more resolutions, but for that, you have to select the QXL video card model in QEMU, and install the native QXL video driver in the Windows guest. Please refer to the OvmfPkg/README file -- at the end, there is a section titled "UEFI Windows 7 & Windows 2008 Server".
(3) You can read about the Int10h VBE shim in commit 9080334. No other video resolutions are planned for the VBE shim.
