Well, after all that discussion about the driver from Realtek for the
8168 chipset (the r1000 module), I updated my kernel.  This, of course,
was going to mean that I had to rebuild the r1000 module, until I
plugged in my ethernet cable and it sprung to life using the r8169
module.

>From the kernel-<flavour> changelog:

* Wed Nov 15 2006 - [EMAIL PROTECTED]
- patches.drivers/r8169-update-2.6.19: Update Realtek r8169 to
  support newer chipsets.

Rar!

This is on Factory, not sure where users of older versions get the
latest kernel from these days...
