[PVE-User] IGB Intel Drivers

[Martin Maurer]

Currently we have the following version of the igb driver:

(just type modeinfo igb)
version:        1.3.8.6

do you think the new version will fix your issue?
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=42302&package_id=237808&release_id=669480

and yes, we will update the driver if it helps.

Best Regards,

Martin Maurer
