[elrepo] Announcement: EL5 Kmod-qlcnic Release [Version 5.0.26]

[Alan Bartlett]

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

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

This package provides an updated qlcnic driver, version 5.0.26 and is
kABI compatible with all kernels from 5.5 (kernel-2.6.18-194.el5)
upwards.

It has been created as a result of the following RFE:

http://elrepo.org/bugs/view.php?id=281

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-qlcnic-5.0.26-1.el5.elrepo.i686.rpm
kmod-qlcnic-PAE-5.0.26-1.el5.elrepo.i686.rpm
kmod-qlcnic-xen-5.0.26-1.el5.elrepo.i686.rpm

x86_64
kmod-qlcnic-5.0.26-1.el5.elrepo.x86_64.rpm
kmod-qlcnic-xen-5.0.26-1.el5.elrepo.x86_64.rpm

SRPMS
qlcnic-kmod-5.0.26-1.el5.elrepo.src.rpm

You may update your system by:

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

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

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

Thank you,

The ELRepo Team.
