Something went wrong.

Can you try against 2.6.18-rc6:
http://www.fr.zoreil.com/people/francois/misc/20060911-2.6.18-rc6-r8169-test.patch

If the driver does not work, which in itself would be fairly disappointing, 
revert (patch -R) 0009 found in the 2.6.18-rc5 directory and try again.

If the driver still does not work, revert 0007 found in the 2.6.18-rc5
directory and try again.

If the driver still does not work, send the .c file, send your working
2.6.17-rc6 driver and send the _complete_ dmesg from boot for both
kernels because something is badly screwed.
