Good afternoon, we have a few Toshiba laptops within our organisation who seem to have a specific (rebranded?) RTL 810xE pci ethernet chip. At bootup the Linux driver asks to inform the maintainer of the r8169 driver/module. The device identifiers are : 10ec:8136 and 1179:fbb0 Would it be possible to add this identifier to the driver/module ? ( kernel upto 6.3.2 does not include this signature )
The PCI ID is standard and recognized, otherwise r8169 wouldn't be loaded. Supposedly what you mean is that the chip XID isn't recognized. Please provide a full dmesg log of an affected machine.
Do you need any further information ? Kind regards, Tom Doenen
