Hello, Asking in general supports because even though my issue is network, the issue can aply to other drivers. I installed CentOS-7-i386-Minimal-1511 on an appliance but natively it will not see the network cards. I needed to upgrade the drivers via intels source code in igb- The Son Of Sobek Pdf Full. 5.3.5.3.tar.gz. I'm successfully loading the new driver via rmmod/modprobe commands in the rc.modules file.
Using the igb driver on 2.4 or older 2. Microsoft Office 2007 Pro Torrent Free. 6 based kernels. Due to limited support for PCI-Express in 2.4 kernels and older 2.6 kernels.
But this just seems like a horrible hack I would not want someone to come behind me and find. Forum posts suggest just use ELRepo.
But I do not see kmod-igb at all for CentOS 7 and the 6 version is to old for my problem. So is rc.modules an acceptable solution, or is there a better way to handle updating drivers that are only available via source? Thank you, -Patrick. With the in kernel driver I get: igb: probe of 0000:04:00.1 failed with error -2 igb: probe of 0000:04:00.2 failed with error -2 igb: probe of 0000:04:00.3 failed with error -2 igb: probe of 0000:04:00.4 failed with error -2 After rmmod and modprobe the new driver I get error -5 for 4.00.3 and 4.00.4, but since I only have 2 physical ports to connect I'm not worried about that. Looking up those errors I only see end users doing the same thing as me to update the driver. Thanks agin for your time. I see hits on google about those errors being to do with the PCI memory size.
I would try the ELRepo kmod-igb next and if that's not new enough to fix the problem, open a ticket on their bugtracker as an RFE to request it be updated. Cortot Student Edition. The advantage of ELRepo over building it yourself is that theirs will survive kernel updates and a source built copy will not - you will need to rebuild for each and every kernel update. Oh, also worth opening a ticket on bugzilla.redhat.com about it and see if the fix can be made available in a future distro kernel.
