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. |

I sent out this request a couple of years ago but didn't get a reply. |

Hoping I can find someone this time before I mark it maintainer-needed. |
