Bug Description
This small patch is needed to enable the Killer E2400 Ethernet controller.
This patch was originally authored by Ben Pope and has been submitted to <email address hidden>:
http://
However, that patch is currently held up by formatting issues in the commit message, hasn't yet been merged into the netdev branch upstream.
As we have an upcoming product that uses the E2400, it would hugely help System76 if Ubuntu could carry this as a "sauce" patch till it is merged upstream.
In particular, it would help System76 if this patch could be included in time to be on the final Ubuntu 15.10/Wily ISO, otherwise our customer restore procedure will require WiFi, wont be able to utilize Ethernet.
Note I've extensively tested this patch with an E2400 Ethernet controller and it seems 100% solid.
Thanks!
