A friend of mine have added the correct driver into the bzimage file

Can you explain this in a bit more detail? Lets see if we can help everyone do better, please.

@george1421 I tell me i recompile the kernel using https://kernel.org/ and the fog procedure.

@olivier-bonnici That link does not work for me. Can you please provide it another way (Google Drive open link or GIT etc.)?

@olivier-bonnici @Clebboii Sorry for the delay. Would either of you be willing to test another kernel? If so, please download it from here: https://github.com/rluzuriaga/fos/releases/tag/EXP_20250617

[Clebboii]

@rodluz Unfortunately still no better:

@olivier-bonnici I cannot test with link below as you have not allowed me access.

[olivier.bonnici]

@Clebboii Acces granted.

@olivier-bonnici This kernel works:

Can you please describe what has changed so that @rodluz can make changes for next release?

[rodluz]

@Clebboii Thanks for testing! Using the kernel I linked previously, can you run the following command and post the output please?
ethtool interface
interface would be your ethernet interface like eth0 or ens1. You can get it using the command ip a s

[rodluz]

@Clebboii Sorry to double up on the requests… After you try the commands from my last reply, can you please try this kernel? https://github.com/rluzuriaga/fos/releases/tag/EXPERIMENTAL_OEM_Driver

Can you also try the ethtool command with this kernel please?

[Clebboii]

@rodluz Success!

As we know the pre-release kernel did not work:

However the experimental OEM driver did work:

Let me know if you need any further tests

[rodluz]

@Clebboii Thank you so much for testing this! I now have a better idea of what needs to be done for future releases.
You are welcome to continue using the “OEM driver” kernel for now until I create a full upstream release.
