problem with RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+

[Renato Ricardo de Abreu]

Hi all,

     I had a HP Pavilion notebook with a Realtek Card, in Red Hat 9 every
thing work fine but in Fedora core 1 not.

     see my message log file:
Dec 17 13:17:51 spit-fire kernel: eth0: RealTek RTL8139 Fast Ethernet at

You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg
Dec 17 13:17:52 spit-fire insmod:

driver 8139cp
Dec 17 13:17:53 spit-fire kernel: eth0: link up, 100Mbps, full-duplex, lpa

.......
the module exist :
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root        22576 Dez 17 11:36
/lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2129.nptl/kernel/drivers/net/8139cp.o
So it load 8139too and in a HI LOAD :

Dec 17 13:56:00 spit-fire kernel: NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out
