[meta-intel] jasperforest BSP add intel 82850 network controller driver (igb) support

[Kamble, Nitin A]

Eddy,
There is a typo in the line you are adding. The line should look like this.

KERNEL_FEATURES_append = " features/igb"

Notice double quotes on both ends, and also notice space before features. And also check your built file system to see whether igd module file is present or not. And if you are not familiar with the Linux kernel development I would recommend reading some Linux kernel development articles to help you out.

Also note that, now because of holidays many of the developers may be offline currently.

Nitin

Subject: [meta-intel] jasperforest BSP add intel 82850 network controller driver (igb) support

Hi ,

I am using yocto 1.3 with jasperforest BSP,have successfully build with default settings and boot the USB flash drive from the target hardware.

but don't know how to add "igb" (for supporting 82580DB ethernet controller) driver.(am I right to use "igb" for 82850DB?)

I have modified the "jasperforst.conf" to add KERNEL_FEATURES_append = "features/igb
build done and target boot, but there's no eth0 port present

how can I check if the igb driver build inside the target system?
"lsmod" list nothing, and "insmod igb" said not found in modules.dep

or how can I add the driver igb-4.0.17 from sourceforge "http://sourceforge.net/projects/e1000/files/igb%20stable/"
into my yocto build?
