Hi guys;
   I'm having a problem with a new pc that has an Realtec ethernet device.
Don't know why the driver is not loading and is not detected during
installation process.

I tried to load r8169.ko unsuccessfully. It load but no device is
detected. No dmesg or /var/log/message.

¿Any help on how I can configure correctly this ethernet device?

Hi ArcosCom,

We have a few boxes with this chip (running CentOS4,i386), and I'm sorry to say that this NIC is not supported out of the box by the included drivers.

We've got it running by using the 'r1000' driver, which seems to be Realteks own driver. I'll be happy to make the archive we have (v1.05) available to you if you don't find a more recent version on your own.

Yours,
