Re: [RTnet-users] r7168 using the rt_r8169.ko driver

[Stéphane A. <san...@fr...>]

This version is known to work with an RTL8168 (kernel 2.6.34) and solves 
some issues.

It unlocks the 8168 internal chip delay to process interrupts (unwanted 
behaviour in real-time process).
It is not dedicated to work with a shared interrupt.
I may have locked it to 100 Mbps - FDX. (to check).

I let Hidde compare this one to it's version.

Regards,
Steph
