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.

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?****
