    Realtek 8139 problems

    My new ethernet card is a Realtek RTL-8139. This thing has some problems with Lucid, but I found part of a solution here, as is shown below.

    The problem with this fix is that it does not survive a reboot. Any ideas on how to make the fix permanent?

    Thanks!


    Code:
    1	root@ubuntu:~$ mii-tool eth0 -F 10baseT-FD
    2	root@ubuntu:~$ rmmod 8139too
    3	root@ubuntu:~$ modprobe 8139too

    go into your /etc/rc.local and add

    mii-tool eth0 -F 10baseT-FD
    rmmod 8139too
    modprobe 8139too

    all above the exit 0 at the bottom of /etc/rc.local

    It should execute those commands whenever you power on your computer.
