This won't work until your interface shows up in
ifconfig, which it currently does not.
I googled
05:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation Enterprise Southbridge DPT LAN Copper
There were 3 results. None helpful.
Please check that this device is enabled in your BIOS.
If so, I am fresh out of ideas and I suggest you disable the on-board interface with your BIOS, and buy another card (they are cheap now, and 3Com-anything seems to work with linux in my experience)
Sorry I cannot be more helpful.
