eigenfunctions. help!

I would be very grateful for any help on the following question:

Find any single eigenvalue-eigenfunction pair, with a real eigenvalue, for the
following operator:

[itex]\textit{L}[/itex] = ([itex]\partial^2[/itex]/[itex]\partial[/itex]x) + ([itex]\partial[/itex]/[itex]\partial[/itex]x) + 2Id

subject to the initial boundary conditions u(0)=u(pi)=0
