March 25, 20188 yr hey, I have the driver for the installation but having a problem with finding the file in the unraid Terminal the driver is for a network card form trend net (TEG-10GECTX) I have unraid 6.5 I put the file in the Boot USB drive. help IOMMU group 21:[1fc9:4027] 06:00.0 Ethernet controller: Tehuti Networks Ltd.

March 25, 20188 yr You can not install drivers as unRAID unpacks itself fresh in RAM upon system start up. If your driver is missing you may make a feature request, and Limetech will look into it. If it is supported by Linux it usually isn't a problem to get added.
March 27, 20188 yr The driver should already be included in linux kernel. Please post your diagnostics.zip file.
March 27, 20188 yr 16 minutes ago, Landermark said: here you go tower-diagnostics-20160812-1616.zip You need to upgrade unRAID OS.
March 28, 20188 yr Author upgrade to which version I have 6.5 I'm going to upgrade to 6.5.1-rc2 and see if that works Edited March 28, 20188 yr by Landermark
March 28, 20188 yr Community Expert upgrade to which version I have 6.5 Then you posted the wrong diags, those are from v6.1.9, though in hindsight looking at the date looks like you posted some old ones.
March 28, 20188 yr Community Expert NIC is detected but no driver loaded, did you try rc2? 06:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Tehuti Networks Ltd. TN9710P 10GBase-T/NBASE-T Ethernet Adapter [1fc9:4027] Subsystem: Tehuti Networks Ltd. Ethernet Adapter [1fc9:3015]
March 28, 20188 yr That device is not supported in the linux tehuti driver. Not sure why, eventually whoever is the maintainer will correct that. But I hope you understand we cannot install vendor-specific drivers into unRAID because it results in huge support issues. Often in the past we have done this, but along comes a kernel release where the old driver source no longer compiles. Now what do we do? If we stay on old kernel we don't get security and bug fixes and feature of new kernel. If we move to new kernel, everyone using the proprietary driver can't upgrade unRAID OS which may have other critical security and bug fixes. Your best approach would be to find out who is the linux maintainer for that driver and ask them to add support. It may be as simple as a one-line change to add the PCI ID of the device, but I have not seen any such patch.
March 28, 20188 yr https://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/TEHUTI.html Maybe I'll just add that PCI ID in next 6.5-rc release and you can let me know if it works?
March 28, 20188 yr Author ok I will contact the manufacturer about the driver and see if they can fix the code on it but if you can add it so I can see how well it works for that update that be great

Please let me know if this solves the problem for you.
April 4, 20188 yr Author hey I gave it a try and it still won't work sorry this is the up to date file on it tower-diagnostics-20180404-1509.zip
April 4, 20188 yr Author so I have gotten in contact with someone at TRENDnet about the drive he told me to email him the information we need to be done and he can send it to the right person to see if he can make the driver fit

June 14, 20188 yr @Landermark have you gotten any response from the TRENDnet side of things? I have the same chip on my card and I would love to see it merged into the next Linux kernel. I have contacted Tehuti Networks with no replies but was hoping your resource had something to say.
June 20, 20188 yr Author I did get in contact but I did not really get anywhere but I can call in again and see if there is a update
