Hi Phil,

Is there any chance of updating the r8169 driver to be compatible with 
7.5? I am getting the following errors:

    /home/build/rpmbuild/BUILD/r8169-6.020.00/src/r8169_n.c:2617:9:
    error: unknown field 'ndo_change_mtu' specified in initializer
              .ndo_change_mtu  = rtl8169_change_mtu,

This was one which slipped through the net with 7.4 in that it was 
updated for 7.4 compatibility but never got the 7_4 in the name.

Thanks

Nick
