Dear Linux r8169 crew,

I have got your e-mail address from the modinfo of the r8196 module.

I am not sure if this is the right way to contact you, but I hope you
could help me.

The current driver in Kernel 2.6.22 produces very bad network speeds.
I only geht 100 kb/s.

Maybe you could take a look at this bug-report at launchpad.net.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.22/+bug/114171

The latest driver from realtek is working very well.
ftp://210.51.181.211/cn/nic/r8168-8.003.00.tar.bz2

What I would like to know, is, if the latest realtek driver will make it
into the kernel, or if the problems with the r8196 module are already
solved.

If there are any questions feel free to contact me.

Thanks in Advanced

Achim Frase
