Package: linux-image-2.6.26-2-amd64
Version: 2.6.26-17
Severity: normal

The RealTek 8111c chipset, frequently used in mainboards from many
manufacturers, is not supported in the 2.6.26 kernel. I've tried the
Ubuntu 9.04 distro and it does work with their 2.6.28 kernel. RealTek
offer the source for a Linux driver on their web site that, according to
some reports I've seen re. getting it to work with earlier Ubuntu
versions, works back to at least kernel 2.6.24.

I'd compile the module but aptitude reports problems getting everything
I need. SO for now I'm using an old Linksys 10/100 USB Ethernet adapter.
