I'm having a problem with both of the built-in NICs of my MSI X48 Platinum motherboard. The docs at kernel.org seem to suggest this list. I hope this is the right list to post to. I'm using Gentoo with kernel version 2.6.25-gentoo-r5, a 'genkernel'. The NIC that seems to work at all is the RealTek. It works fine after booting, but if I do any significant amount of network traffic, the NIC just seems to lockup. Restarting the net service doesn't help, and rmmod'ing the module and insmod'ing it doesn't help either. This post: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=160512 seems to suggest that the Linux driver (back in 2007) would inadvertently switch the device off. Are there still problems with this driver? Any suggestions as to how to diagnose the problem? Alternatively, I can use the Intel 83566DC, but for the life of me, I cannot figure out which kernel module supports this device. Google searches come up empty. How can I figure out which module to use?
