Better respons from eth0 on Debian/Ubuntu --> using r8168

I followed this how to for fixing the ethernet driver: no more drop outs or a freeze of fit-pc2. Also when I rebooted, sometimes there was a loss of the eth0 device; I do not get this anymore!

Cheers, Marco

by the way: when creating the dkms.conf file, you have to change the qoutations: "" tot ''.

Like this example:
PACKAGE_NAME=r8168
PACKAGE_VERSION=8.019.00
MAKE[0]='make'
BUILT_MODULE_NAME[0]=r8168
BUILT_MODULE_LOCATION[0]='src/'
DEST_MODULE_LOCATION[0]='/kernel/updates/dkms'
AUTOINSTALL='YES'
