Hi list, Does anyone have the Realtek gigabit RTL8110SC working? From reading the list it appears that support has been added to the r8169 in-kernel module. I can't get it to work - unfortunately I'm forced to use kernel 2.6.15-1 from Fedora Core 5 at the moment but I've tried:
-backporting 2.6.18 to 2.6.20.1 versions of the module to work on 2.6.15-1 - it was trivial changes aside from 2.6.20.1 which required changes to the task scheduling code, but I'm pretty certain I didn't break anything. -applying the patch originally provided in http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0702.0/0422.html to the 2.6.15-1 driver, or the 2.6.19.2 driver. -using the r1000 v1.05 driver available from the realtek website. The backported kernel modules successfully identify the rtl8110sc device and provide the eth interface, but do not successfully send/receive any packets on the wire. The r1000 driver seems to be able to send data on the wire for about a minute, receive packets back about 5% of the time, and after a minute stop working altogether, complaining that the "send buffer is full." Does anyone have this chipset working?
