Thanks Bruce,

how can I "check to see if the kernel options were picked up and made it

are you options present in the final .config ?"
have read the "development manual", in chap.4.1.2.2 said
".config file found in the Build Directory at
tmp/sysroots/<machine-name>/kernel"
but there's no "kernel" folder in my "tmp/sysroots/jasperforest" , nor
in "tmp/sysroots/x86_64"

     I'm out of the office at the moment, and doing this from memory, so
     sorry for not being completely precise.

     You can check to see if the kernel options were picked up and made it
     to the build by looking at the linux build directory and the .config,
     are you options present in the final .config ?

     If they are, then you'll also see the .ko's in the build tree, and those
     same modules packaged in the linux-yocto deploy directory. That means
     the modules are available.

     But they won't be autoloaded on boot unless you have an init script that
     modprobes it, or you have a recipe that makes use of the oe-core module
     loading framework.

     So I'd suggest a build, boot and a manual modprobe of the igb module.
     That will check everything that I mention above, and you'll have the
     dmesg output to tell you if something has gone wrong while inserting
     the module (versus a build time issue).

     Cheers,

     Bruce
