Title:
r8169 driver does not work with Realtek PCI-E 8111B integrated
network controller
To manage notifications about this bug
The incorrect module is detected and loaded, unfortunately this bug has
existed for around 4+ years now.
Currently does not work on Ubuntu 11.04 (GNU/Linux 2.6.38-8-server
x86_64)
These are the same bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.22/+bug/141343
Why is the bug still unfixed? There are so many work-arounds for this
known problem, but its remained unfixed to-date! How can we go about
getting the nic detection fixed so that the correct module is loaded?

I also confirm that this is not fixed in Intrepid, at least not in the

not work with the Realtek 8168 driver, either. So, this board seems to
be completely out of luck.

Hello,
r8169 driver is loaded before root filesystem is mounted, so, to
blacklist it, after addind it to a blacklist file under /etc/modprobe.d
you need to issue the following command:
sudo update-initramfs -c -k all
then reboot... it should work fine after that!
