Hi list,

I`ve just installed a brand new gentoo amd64 and there is this problem: my
"Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168 PCI
Express Gigabit Ethernet controller (rev 06)" is recognized as *sit0* , but
I can't get any IP Adress.

dhcp takes long and doesn't get any result. dhcpcd doesn't work either.
Even if I choose a manual address I cant ping other devices.

When I used ifconfig, I got something like "ipv6 over ipv4", but I will
only need ipv4. So I disabled ipv6 USE flag, but I didn't change anything.
The weird thing is that if I disable the IPV6 kernel support (manual
configuration btw), the network interface (sit0) desappears!

When I reboot the system using a usb botable Ubuntu everything works fine,
using the same hardware/infrastructure.

I have no idea what is going on here, so, please, send me some links.

Thank you all,
