I no longer have a motherboard with this hardware. Towards the end I |
| 2 |
found that the mainline r8169 driver worked anyway, even though it |
| 3 |
didn't used to. There are still some revisions of the hardware that |
| 4 |
don't work with the mainline driver. |

The package is fairly low maintenance. The driver sometimes breaks |
| 7 |
following new kernel releases but Realtek usually put out a new driver |
| 8 |
by the time the next release comes around. You can sometimes find |
| 9 |
patches floating around the community before that. |
