Hi - I have a r8101E NIC (10/100 Mbit/sec) on a Toshiba Satellite L355D-S7815 laptop (AMD Dual Core 64 bit) which I'm trying to get working. There's appears to be a bug in the default kernel (2.6.25-14.fc9.x86_64) for Fedora 9: Sep 24 09:02:22 localhost kernel: r8169 Gigabit Ethernet driver 2.2LK-NAPI loaded Sep 24 09:02:22 localhost kernel: ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:04:00.0[A] -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17 Sep 24 09:02:22 localhost kernel: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000208 This bug prevents the installation of Fedora 9 unless the LAN device is disabled. I downloaded the r8108E driver from RealTek which I can build and install, but the problem is I can *NOT* rmmod r8169 ERROR: Module in use and I can not insmod r8108 insmod: error inserting 'r8101.ko' : -1 Invalidmodule format I am dead in the water. Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- Article. VI.
