Hi,
I download the latest ixgbe driver from source forge.
for example,
wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/e1000/files/ixgbe%20stable/4.1.1/
ixgbe-4.1.1.tar.gz
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/e1000/files/ixgbe%20stable/4.1.1/ixgbe-4.1.1.tar.gz/download>
then find the ixgbe in your linux kernel, for example, ixgbe is in
drivers/net/intel/ixgbe
Please rename the default ixgbe driver to another name, for example
mv ixgbe ixgbe-default
Then uncompress the latest ixgbe driver 4.1.1 to this
tar -zxvf ixgbe-4.1.1.tar.gz -C drivers/net/intel/
then rename ixgbe-4.1.1 to ixgbe
mv ixgbe-4.1.1 ixgbe
then run make menuconfig
enable ixgbe driver
then, if you compile the kernel in ubuntu,
make-kpkg --initrd --append-to-version=-ixgbe kernel_image kernel-headers
Note: maybe you will fix some errors. Do not give up, all the errors will
be fix soon.
after building successfully, you will get 2 deb files.
run "dpkg -i *.deb"
You will install the latest kernel into your host.
then run "reboot"
select the latest kernel.
Then make tests according my previous mail.
If any problem, please let me know.
