I have the following Ethernet Cards:-
  01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
RTL-8169 Gigabit Ethernet (rev 08)
  01:08.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82562EZ 10/100
Ethernet Controller (rev 02)

The Intel one is the on board one.  The problem is I cant get the
Gigabit one working.

Ifconfig gives me:

eth1    Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:0d:61:50:f1:21
          inet addr:192.168.1.95  Bcast:192.168.1.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::20d:61ff:fe50:f121/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1

          TX packets:611 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0

lo        Link encap:Local Loopback
          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0

          RX bytes:479099 (479.0 KB)  TX bytes:479099 (479.0 KB)

and  'dmesg | grep eth' gives me:-
[    4.293137] e100: eth0: e100_probe: addr 0xf7003000, irq 20, MAC

Any ideas?

Reghards,
