another one cool question about drivers on CoreOS Container Linux

[Ярослав Наконечников]

Hello!

is there any option to include STLab driver into distro? 
they make nice USB expansion cards, but in CoreOS this cards doesn't work.

while in other mainstream distros - works.

also they have drivers http://linux-drivers.net/index.php?p=controller&s=stlab&j=STLab%20U-880%20(RTL)%20PCI-Ex4,%20USB3.0,%204%20port-ext 

but, i don't know what drivers will fit. 

could you point me where to look at?

If the driver has already been merged to the mainline linux kernel, then
what kernel config options does it need? See:

https://github.com/coreos/coreos-overlay/tree/master/sys-kernel/coreos-modules/files

If it is not merged, you could work towards that.
