Hi list, I have ASUS a6m laptop with integrated RTL8168/8111 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC, long time ago (7.0-CURRENT - 7.0-prerelease) I used it. Than I started to enjoy BCM43XX wi-fi adapter and now I recently decided to revert to the use of realtek adapter. But it doesn't work. I'm just not running a network card or at all does not work? some additional information: ifconfig shows such information, regardless of whether the cable is connected: %ifconfig re0 re0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500 options=389b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM,WOL_UCAST,WOL_MCAST,WOL_MAGIC> ether 00:1a:92:ca:b3:bc media: Ethernet autoselect (10baseT/UTP <half-duplex>) status: no carrier [tiger@notebook]~%pciconf -lv | grep re0 -A 4 re0@pci0:2:0:0: class=0x020000 card=0x11f51043 chip=0x816810ec rev=0x01 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Realtek Semiconductor' device = 'RTL8168/8111 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC' class = network subclass = ethernet dmesg output: http://tiger.byfly.by/files/dmesg.boot kernel config: http://tiger.byfly.by/files/tiger-asus-a6m p.s.: Excuse me for my English :) -- wbr, tiger

Can you provide pciconf -lv output? CC'ing PYUN Yong-Hyeon (surname Pyun), who helps maintain this driver. He might have some patches for you. -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc at parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.

Because there is no "RUNNING" in flags field I guess you didn't up the interface. (e.g. either assign an IP address to the interface or run 'dhclient re0' if you want to get an IP address over DHCP). > > [tiger@notebook]~%pciconf -lv | grep re0 -A 4 > re0@pci0:2:0:0: class=0x020000 card=0x11f51043 chip=0x816810ec rev=0x01 > hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Realtek Semiconductor' > device = 'RTL8168/8111 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC' > class = network > subclass = ethernet > dmesg output: http://tiger.byfly.by/files/dmesg.boot > kernel config: http://tiger.byfly.by/files/tiger-asus-a6m > -- Regards, Pyun YongHyeon
