1 I have news... I boot from USB, and a lspci -v says:

22 But when I boot normally (with my gentoo), lspci -v says:

42 > Typo maybe? It should be r8169.
43
44 You are rigth :P

47 So, we are back to beginning ._. I need load a module (r8169), and modprobe
48 does not works :P

54
55 I already compiled the kernel with r8169 as module as you suggested. But is
56 the same :P
57
58 # modprobe r8169
59 modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'r8169': Function not implemented

61 To install the firmware [1], I need to run a script "autorun.sh". When I do
62 that, say me this:
