Announcing the release of the kmod-r8169 package in the EL6
elrepo-testing repository:

http://elrepo.org/tiki/kmod-r8169

This package provides the r8169 kernel module(s) for Realtek RTL8169,
RTL8169SB(L), RTL8169SC(L), RTL8110S-32, RTL8110SB(L) & RTL8110SC(L)
Gigabit Ethernet NICs, version 6.013.00_NAPI and is kABI compatible
with all kernels from 6.0 (kernel-2.6.32-71.el6) upwards.

It is built to depend upon the specific ABI provided by a range of
releases of the same variant of the Linux kernel and not on any one
specific build.

End user testing of this package (& subsequent feed-back) will be
appreciated and would also speed its eventual promotion to the main
repository.

Thank you,

The ELRepo Team.
