Heck :/

- The manual is available only under NDA ; however, the Linux source code is
usually clean (cf.
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/net/ethernet/realtek/r8169.c).
So I won't be sad enough to cry, but sad nonetheless.

BUT:

- Typing "rtl8111 linux" (is the NDA means they had something to hide ? :P)
on Google (and on my computer) give the three first result talking about
RTL8111 problem under Linux; and the solution seems to be the installation
of Realtek proprietary drivers.

Ok. Nevermind. I'll try, we'll see :)

Thanks a lot !
