Hey Daniel! It's about like that. What I can say that I understood, in a non-expert view, is:
1) No, my card did work with 2.6.38-10 kernel. It was doing it randomly. That link I refer says that Ubuntu automatic config does not get a good driver, or something like that. 2) Yes, the link proposes to put the driver that Ubuntu used in blacklist and update using the linked at Realtek's website, so I did this. 3) Yes, I did the update normally using Synaptic. A post-observation (and the problem that gave me some crisis) was that I had set the -10 kernel to completely removal, but lukily it didn't get it. I don't know why but after a couple hours I realised that the packages were there yet, and so I could install them again and give these info to you. 4) Yes, -11 kernel does not find the network card. Strangely, I think the kernel had updated between the time I compiled the driver and yesterday, so this is the cause of my surprise and inspired me to post here. Good to know the blacklist part isn't required, but if I skip that step would the driver for r8169 be that one that caused me trouble in -10 kernel? Is this problem a very specific one? I'm going to try to recompile the driver now. I'm going to be back later with your answer. ;) Thanks! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/814316 Title: Natty's kernel update 2.6.38-11 kills network card config To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/814316/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
