Bug Description
When I installed the edgy eft distribution from the CD with the default kerne, my network card was not recognized anymore.
I did work out of the box with the dapper drake distribution, which installed successfully on my box. I could configyure the NIC and I could have had access to the internet.
I have an onboard Realtek 8169/8110 gigabit ethernet card.
After installation I cannot connect to the internet and my NIC could not be configured by using the control panel.

Here is some update.
Eth0 (my network card) is still having problems. When is is configured with a static ip, the card shows up in the KDE system information and I can ping my router and my ISP dns server.
When I configure eth0 with a dynamic ip using the control panel, eth0 could not obtain a DHCP lease, this did not happen with dapper.
