FWIW, I'm having a good amount of success with the r8169 driver, for an ethernet controller that lspci identifies as "Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8101E/RTL8102E PCI Express Fast Ethernet controller (rev 02)"
- board is Intel D945GCLF w/ Atom @ 1.6ghz, ICH7 - OS is Ubuntu Intrepid; - 'uname -r' ==> "2.6.27-9-generic" - acpid is running, apmd is disabled. the link is stable and performance appears to be good, been running as such since Hardy. However, I am having one problem with it: the NIC doesn't work after a resume from suspend. I'm not able to get any packets off the machine. The interface comes up, everything looks good in 'ifconfig -a' ; I can ping the interface's IP address, and 'netstat -r' looks fine. The orange (speed/link) LED on the physical connector is lit, but the green (activity) LED never lights. arping doesn't work either. -- r8169 counters, Intel Atom 230 (D945GCLF) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/288845 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
