I'm working from memory here, as the machine is at home, but I do
remember that it was pci10ec,8169 and I think the vendor ID was 10ec
and card or device ID was 8169.   I remember that, because the RealTek
drivers include a ReadMe about changing the ID/Name in the <mumble>
list if the card vendor used a different designation, so I carefully
checked that this card has the designation that RealTek uses in their
drivers.

It seems to show up in System Profiler okay, but if there is some
other field I should check, please let me know.

I'm a classic hold out, so my OSX-fu is pathetic.   In which logs
should I look and do you have any hints as to what I should look for?

Thank you,

Jeff
