--- Comment #5 from Hauke Mehrtens <hauke@xxxxxxxxxx> ---
The ALX driver needs MDIO and we do not provide that in backports. When you do
not use a normal distribution kernel with lots of modules activate you have to
activate some dependencies in your kernel by yourself. Sadly CONFIG_MDIO is a
hidden option so you have to build some other Ethernet driver which depends on
that option.

We do ot want to fix this in backports.
