Not exactly. The driver uses the PCI Vendor ID/Device ID Configuration registers to identify the chipset. lspci used the same information to identify a "Realtek... RTL-8110SC/8169SC...". It is a known device. The driver does not care about the Subsystem ID ("10ec" above) so there is nothing to worry about here. > Thanks in advance for any advice.
