sit0 is completely unrelated, it is an IPv6 tunnel device. You need to |
| 10 |
compile the r8169 driver. |
| 11 |
Make sure CONFIG_R8169=m or y in your kernel config and try again |
| 12 |
(modprobe r8169). |
| 13 |
I have a Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express |
| 14 |
Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 06), pci id 10ec:8168 |
| 15 |
on my motherboard and it works fine with the R8169 driver on kernel |
| 16 |
3.10.9 (and has been working since at least the 3.4 series, which was |
| 17 |
when I installed this system) |
