I do it but without success. The module was compiled, the peth0 link is up, but the NIC is without network communication (not configure an IP address via dhcp protocol). If I set a static IP address, it continue without network communication. r8139 module return many messages "link up" in dmesg to peth0 alias.

I also meet this problem when I try to setup a ASUS Santa Rosa laptop
with RTL-8169SC NIC card. I try the following steps and bring up the
NIC with Xen 3.1 in Ubuntu 7.04. Hope it is also helpful to you.
1. untar the xen
3.1 source, say it is in in ~/xen-3.1.0-src
2. get RTL-8169SC linux 2.6 driver source from
http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=3&PNid=13&PFid=4&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false&Downloads=true
ïchoose "Linux driver for kernel 2.6.x (Support x86 and x64)" )
3. untar the driver r8169-6.001.00.tar.bz2, say it is in ~/r8169-6.001.00
4. copy the r8169 driver src to xen linux sparese tree:
# mkdir -p ~/xen-3.1-src/linux-2.6-xen-sparse/drivers/net
# cp ~/r8169-
6.001.00/src/r8169_n.c
~/xen-3.1-src/linux-2.6-xen-sparse/drivers/net/r8169.c
5. compile and install the Xen source as usual
As a temporarily solution, this works in my side. But I think the
final solution would be:
r8169.c updated to latest version in linux
kernel, and Xen sync to the updated kernel.
