How that can be? Thi
RTL8401 (XID 240) was never supported by r8169.
Having said that nothing was dropped from the driver.
And most likely you don't have to compile r8101 yourself,
most distro's have a pre-compiled package.
Hello,
Thanks for confirming the new kernel has dropped support for this
ethernet controller.
This arises some questions, tough:
1. The chipset is not that old (?). It comes embedded on a Compaq Mini
CQ10-520ES (netbook), bought circa mid' 2011.
2. As many users are not able to manually compi
r8169 doesn't support XID 240 (= RTL8401), and it's not really worth it to
retrofit
support for this ancient chip version. Use Realtek's r8101 driver instead.
