I lost you here. What exactly do you mean? ifconfig doesnt show any devices ( 
except the loopback device). Is there another way to find out if the card was 
recognised? dmesg doesnt show any possitive reports tha the device was 
recognised. when i load r8169 (kernel driver) i can see some returned 
pointers and my device works fine but when i load rt_r8169 driver i get 
nothing. 
As far as i understand, the rt_r8169 is based on linux driver but not 
connected at all with it so i guess that this drivers simply doesnt work with 
my card ( damn :( )

Do you have another suggestion?
