I have a motherboard salvaged from an retired server, which has an onboard igb
ethernet chip.  With the in-tree driver only one (out of four) ethernet port is
usable.  But I didn't tried to build the driver from intel.com since I only need
one port...

Raw kernel headers from the kernel source (NOT the sanitized headers installed
in LFS) are necessary for compiling out-tree modules.  And, they have to be
recompiled when kernel is rebuilt.  So I just hate out-tree modules...
