[elrepo] Announcement: EL5 Updated kmod-igb Release [Version 4.0.17]

[Alan Bartlett]

Announcing the release of updated kmod-igb packages into the EL5
elrepo repository:

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

This package provides an updated igb driver, version 4.0.17, 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-igb-4.0.17-1.el5.elrepo.i686.rpm
kmod-igb-PAE-4.0.17-1.el5.elrepo.i686.rpm
kmod-igb-xen-4.0.17-1.el5.elrepo.i686.rpm

x86_64
kmod-igb-4.0.17-1.el5.elrepo.x86_64.rpm
kmod-igb-xen-4.0.17-1.el5.elrepo.x86_64.rpm

src
igb-kmod-4.0.17-1.el5.elrepo.src.rpm

You may update your system by:

yum --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=elrepo update kmod-igb

Once the package has been updated, remember to unload the old driver
before loading the new version into the kernel:

/sbin/ifdown ethN
/sbin/modprobe -r igb
/sbin/modprobe igb
/sbin/ifup ethN

Thank you,

The ELRepo Team.
