| rellis | Hello all. I'm trying to use the linux-aws package provided by the Ubuntu kernel team to get a newer version of the ixgbevf driver. However after I install the package I'm still seeing the old 2.12.1-k driver version. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? or am I misunderstanding the release notes talking about a newer version of this driver? | 16:49 |
|---|---|---|
| ogasawara | rellis: ah, sorry, that's expected right now as we were seeing issues with the newer version of the driver. We're working on getting that sorted asap to provide a newer driver again. | 17:40 |
| rellis | ogasawarasa: Thank you for the response. I was able to install the LTS enablement kernel to get version 3.2.2-k | 17:41 |
| rellis | which I hope won't be fubar :) | 17:41 |
| rellis | although i would like to be able to use linux-aws | 17:41 |
| ogasawara | rellis: cool, that should work for you. Any feedback you have on the 3.2.2 version of that driver from the LTS enablement kernel would be great. | 17:42 |
| rellis | ogasawara: Would you just like feedback in this channel? or is there a ticket or anything? | 17:42 |
| ogasawara | rellis: I'll try to remember to ping you when we have linux-aws with an updated ixgbevf | 17:42 |
| rellis | thanks | 17:42 |
| ogasawara | rellis: informal feedback in this channel is fine | 17:42 |
| rellis | cool | 17:43 |
| kamal | rellis, I think I'm about to make you very happy ... :-) https://launchpad.net/~kamalmostafa/+archive/ubuntu/test-linux-aws/+packages | 17:45 |
| rellis | oh you rock sir | 17:46 |
| rellis | i was just updating the chef recipe to go install the hwe kernel too :) | 17:46 |
| kamal | rellis, that includes an update to ixgbevf to 3.2.2-k, which I'm testing in preparation for merging into linux-aws. your feedback on that exact build would be most appreciated | 17:46 |
| rellis | i will definitely do that | 17:47 |
| rellis | kamal: So strange, after I add your ppa apt search linux-aws shows the new 1006 rev of all the dependant packages but not the linux-aws meta package itself | 19:11 |
| kamal | rellis, oh, I should have warned you (sorry!) ... there is no 1006 meta package (yet), so you have to install the linux-image-xxxxx.deb specifically | 19:12 |
| rellis | ahhh i see | 19:12 |
| rellis | thanks! | 19:12 |
| kamal | rellis, try "sudo apt-get install linux-image-4.4.0-1006-aws" | 19:13 |
| rellis | well im doing this from chef, but i will attempt give or take the same thing | 19:13 |
| kamal | rellis, y'know what? I'll just construct and upload a 1006 meta pkg to that PPA. | 19:14 |
| rellis | that's very nice of you :) | 19:14 |
| kamal | rellis, ok, that's building now, in my test-linux-aws PPA -- should be available within the hour, maybe much sooner | 19:19 |
| rellis | cool, thanks much! | 19:19 |
| kamal | rellis, sure, and thanks in advance for your feedback | 19:20 |
| rellis | well that build was nice and fast | 19:23 |
| kamal | rellis, yup, I guess "much sooner" was right | 19:24 |
| rellis | indeed | 19:26 |
| kamal | rellis, and it looks like it works properly ... let me know if you have any more trouble with it. | 19:26 |
| rellis | i will, im installing it now | 19:27 |
