Thanx to everybody who have been trying to help me on this. My conclusion : Avoid rtl8139D, it doesn´t work at all. Like Verner said: " the "D" means something sinister..." and Richard, you are right, the change from "c" to "d" was terrible :( , the bunch of rtl8138c, that I have works fine. Martin, I´ve got every single of them, none works.
