Greetings,

with my Lenovo laptop and:
Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8101E/RTL8102E PCI
Express Fast Ethernet controller (rev 02)
with the r8169 module I always get:
"
r8169: eth0: link down
ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready
"
when I load the module and after that any action with eth0 won't work.

I've tried reloading the module or disabling auto negotiation a la:
http://adam.rosi-kessel.org/weblog/2008/06/21/a-much-simpler-fix-for-the-r8169-link-down-problem
and in various other bug reports, but nothing does it.

Any help on fixing this problem is greatly appreciated.
