Dear support team,
In the kernel 3.0.8 and 3.1 there is some bug with ethernet controller RTL8111/8168B PCI,

my ls pci output:
07:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller (rev 06)

bug in syslog:
r8169 0000:07:00.0: eth0: unable to load firmware patch rtl_nic/rtl8168e-3.fw (-2)

Best regards
Krzysztof

You can install the firmware by yourself, and it can work well without
the firmware.

I got the firmware from Fedora15 disto, and it worked well with the firmware, too.

Thanks
