Hi,

My kernel version is v4.4, and I have built drivers/staging/dgnc/dgnc.ko.
I change to *dir*/drivers/staging/dgnc and do like this:

    sudo insmod ./dgnc.ko

Do you have the hardware that this driver controls?

I'm not sure. My laptop is Dell Inspiron 14R - 5437 and I don't know if
there is the right hardware. I often don't know about what a driver is used
for in drivers/staging/. Is there any good way to know the function of a
driver or module?

    sudo lsmod | grep dgnc

Does that show anything?

Output: dgnc                   65536  0

    sudo rmmod ./dgnc

what did dmesg showed after you did rmmod?
