  1. hello guys,

     

    this is my first post here, and hope you guys could help me.

     

    i'm running the latest dsm 5.0 with gnoboot's latest alpha, on a biostar amd e350 based fusion board setup.

     

    everything works fine, except gigabit ethernet. the ethernet speed is 100mbps and not gigabit/1000mbps.

     

    The motherboard onboard lan is rtl8111f ethernet.

     

    dmesg | grep 'Ethernet driver'

    i think the newer r8169 driver supports Gigabit ethernet on the RTL8111F chip, but i do not know how to load r8169 instead of r8168.

     

    any suggestions would be much appreciated :smile:

     

    Thanks
