Put together to construct the driving force, you want the Linux kernel sources put in on the
construct machine, and guarantee that the model of the working kernel should match
the put in kernel sources. If you do not have the kernel sources, you will get
it from www.kernel.org or contact to your Linux distributor. If you do not know
how you can do, please check with KERNEL-HOWTO.

Observe: Please ensure the kernel is constructed with one of many “Assist for
Host-side, EHCI, OHCI, or UHCI” choice help.

1. Extract the compressed driver supply file to your template listing by the
   following command:

   [[email protected] template]# tar -xf DRIVER_SOURCE_PACKAGE.tar.bz2

2. Now, the driving force supply information needs to be extracted underneath the present listing.
   Executing the next command to compile the driving force:

   [[email protected] template]# make

3. If the compilation is effectively, the asix.ko will likely be created underneath the present
   listing.

4. If you wish to use modprobe command to mount the driving force, executing the
   following command to put in the driving force into your Linux:

   [[email protected] template]# make set up

1. If you wish to load the driving force manually, go to the driving force listing and
   execute the next instructions:

   [[email protected] template]# insmod ax88179.ko

2. If you happen to had put in the driving force throughout driver compilation, then you should use
   the next command to load the driving force robotically.

   [[email protected] anywhere]# modprobe ax88179

If you wish to unload the driving force, simply executing the next command:

[[email protected] anywhere]# rmmod ax88179

The next parameters could be set when utilizing insmod.

msg_enable=0xNNNNNNN
specifies the msg_enable of usbnet.

instance: insmod ax88179.ko msg_enable=0x00000000
