Hi,
A very annoying problem affects a large number of GNU/Linux distribution.
Network card problem (with 8111/8168 chipset), As you can see:

Can you fix it?
Thank you, best regards
Loic (HacKurx).

XID identifies your chipset as RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_34. A recent r8169 kernel
driver would display something like :
[ x.xxxxxx] r8169 0000:03:00.0: eth0: RTL8168evl/8111evl at ...
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Your r8169 driver lacks support for the adequate chipset. Please try
current 3.1-rc. It should perform better.
