AW: AW: [Xen-users] XEN 3.4 - Problems with eth0 (link down)

[Carsten Schiers <carsten@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I have the sources from 

http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=5&PFid=5&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false#RTL8111B/RTL8168B/RTL8111/RTL8168%3Cbr%3ERTL8111C/RTL8111CP/RTL8111D(L)%3Cbr%3ERTL8168C/RTL8111DP

They compile without any change. Unfortunately, I have no idea how to integrate 
them into
the linux tree. Because of the discussion to move to another kernel tree, I 
also see no use
in taking any effort into this integration, as an out-of-kernel compile works 
pretty well.

Note: I use V8.011.00.

BR,
Carsten.

Hi,

I think the card which I've build in, is not well implemented in the  
patched r8169.c module.
So the new revisions of this card needs to be updated in this  
particular file.

Has sombody expirience with that?

Cheers,
Maik
