Hi!

I have a Dell Vostro 1310 notebook, with a Realtek integrated
network:

07:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller (rev 02)

I just downloaded the last kernel driver from git:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=blob;f=drivers/net/r8169.c;hb=77332894c21165404496c56763d7df6c15c4bb09

I compiled it and replaced the r8169.ko file from hardy with the new one, now works without problems.

Perhaps including this last driver makes sense, instead of the r8168 one.
