Bug Description
On AsRock Z68 Pro3 Motherboard with Realtek RTL8111/8168B Ethernet controller rev 06 the wrong driver module r8169 is loaded and connectivity is very bad and slow and interrupted. Correct driver module is r8168. If installed manually from Realteks website the device is working well. - But on reboot Ubuntu loads r8169 again - without huge effort to avoid this.

Seems to be older issue, see e.g. /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +source/ linux/+ bug/699761

But no solution except manual install?
Tested here in oneiric with mainline 3.1 Kernel, too. No change.
