Announcing the release of kmod-ixgbe packages into the EL5
elrepo-testing repository:

http://elrepo.org/tiki/kmod-ixgbe

This package has been created as a result of the following RFE:

http://elrepo.org/bugs/view.php?id=270

It provides the Intel® 82598-, 82599- & X540-based PCI-Express* 10
gigabit Ethernet adapter driver and is kABI compatible with all
kernels from 5.4 (kernel-2.6.18-164.el5) upwards. It is built to
depend upon the specific ABI provided by a range of releases of the
same variant of the Linux kernel and not on any one specific build.

The following files are currently syncing to the mirrors:

x86
kmod-ixgbe-3.9.15-1.el5.elrepo.i686.rpm
kmod-ixgbe-PAE-3.9.15-1.el5.elrepo.i686.rpm
kmod-ixgbe-xen-3.9.15-1.el5.elrepo.i686.rpm

kmod-ixgbe-xen-3.9.15-1.el5.elrepo.x86_64.rpm

src
ixgbe-kmod-3.9.15-1.el5.elrepo.src.rpm

End user testing of this package (& subsequent feed-back) will be
appreciated and would also speed its eventual promotion to the main
repository.

Thank you,

The ELRepo Team.
