I haven't tried Hardy or Intrepid because I switched to Gentoo on that
box.  (Ubuntu on the desktop, but I wanted a totally stripped system for
my compute machine.)

Anyhow, here's what lspci tells me:
0a:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI 
Express Gigabit Ethernet controller (rev 01)

This is my system information:
Linux compute0 2.6.26-gentoo #1 SMP Fri Jul 18 20:58:53 EDT 2008 x86_64 
Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q9450 @ 2.66GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

I'm sure Intrepid has a slightly newer kernel.  Does Ubuntu use the FOSS
driver or does it use a binary one from Realtek?  I may consider
switching to Ubuntu server if it can solve my problem.  (I should
probably also file a bug report with Gentoo.)
