Subject: [dyne:bolic] Need help installing realtek driver module

Hi all,

I'd apreciate if someone could help me with this issue. I'm trying to get my ethernet card (realtek r111B )to work with dyne:bolic 2.5.2. The r8169 module shipped with kernel 2.6.18 seems not to be working, so I downloaded the r8168 driver source from realtek site, compiled it (already got kernel-src.dyne) and voilá, I could connect to dynebolic site after tweaking with the netconf tool. I just can't figure out how to get this driver permanently built in my dyne CD. 'dynesdk mkkern' didn't packed the r8168.ko driver, so I made a rc.local script and told the system to copy the r8168.ko file to /lib/modules/.../drivers/net at boot time and after that run insmod. So far ok, I can see the driver through 'lsmod', but I still need to run the Network configuration tool each time I reboot to get internet working. Could put 'ifconfig eth0 192.168.254.1' in rc.local script too, but I'm wondering if that wouldn't bring me trouble would I try dyne in another computer (which is THE important feature imo). So, do you have any idea how should I get this working? What would the profis do? By the way, where are the network config files stored?

Thanks,

Ricardo
