Package: linux-image-2.6.25-2-amd64
Version: 2.6.25-5
Severity: normal
I recently bought a gigabyte GA-MA78GM-S2H motherboard, comes with a Realtek
8111C chip nic.
I have installed debian (amd64) and I notice when I use ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1f:d0:59:14:a1

there is a large amount of dropped, I have checked this on a newly booted
machine and the number seems to be in the >1B
mark. IPv4 seems to be working okay. But I use radvd, ipv6 autoconfig to
configure ipv6. icmpv6 router advertisements
don't seem to be making it to the card. I see noting then I run tcpdump

there seems to be some talk on this thread
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=671614 of a r8168 module, which I
can't find in the source tree ?
