Hi guys;
   I'm having a problem with a new pc that has an Realtec ethernet device.
Don't know why the driver is not loading and is not detected during
installation process.

I tried to load r8169.ko unsuccessfully. It load but no device is
detected. No dmesg or /var/log/message.

¿Any help on how I can configure correctly this ethernet device?

This are the data that I have:
