It was enabled again (d64ec841517a25f6d468bde9f67e5b4cffdc67c7) then disabled (4521e1a94279ce610d3f9b7945c17d581f804242). It's closer to 3.5 years :o) Module parameters are frowned upon. Lin, is there some interest in selectively [*] enabling (or disabling) ASPM support in the r8169 driver or will it be unreliable ? [*] Based on DMI information for instance. -- Ueimor
