I assume by RealTek you mean 8139.  Please provide "lspci" or "dmesg" or
-something- other than "my realtek builtin NIC."

Can you try the latest 8139too.c from gkernel CVS? 
(http://sf.net/projects/gkernel/ checkout module "linux_2_4")

Does enabling CONFIG_8139TOO_PIO change things?

Can you get any output when enabling RTL8139_DEBUG?
