On a Gigabyte X48-DS4 board with Intel Quadcore (Yorkfield) with onboard Realtek RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Thernet controllers (rev 2) under Intrepid server 2.6.27-7 (x86_64) I had connectivity although ifconfig showed billions of dropped packages on both Gigabit controllers (only one was connected to the network) and there appeared to exist some intermittent problems with acquiring an address from the dhcp server that was supposed to be linked to the MAC address.
Installing the Realtek 8168 driver (and removing the Intrepid 8169 one) as described by the original poster rectified the issue. -- Realtek RTL8168C/8111C ethernet compatibility https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/208012 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
