Hi to all, i'm new in the forum. my name is ignacio but everyone calls me nacho. i'm also new in unraid, and i have a problem with a Realtek PCI Gigabit Nic and i hope someone could help me.

 

The card is a Encore ENLGA-1320 with a Realtek 8169SC chip. i understand it's supported. I have installed the last version of unraid, 5.0 beta-10.

lspci -v command shows it; but dont appear neither in ethtool nor ifconfig.

...

 

01:06.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8169 Gigabit Ethernet (rev 10)

        Subsystem: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8169 Gigabit Ethernet

        Flags: bus master, 66MHz, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11

        I/O ports at e800

        Memory at dffffc00 (32-bit, non-prefetchable)

        Expansion ROM at dffc0000 [disabled]

        Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2

 

 

i'd tried to run rmmod r8169 but it seems there is no driver

root@Tower:~# rmmod r8169

ERROR: Module r8169 does not exist in /proc/modules

Also nothing appear in dmesg regarding r8169.

 

I'm very noob at linux, and even more in slackware, so any help is appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance and sorry about my poor english.
