Title:
  r8169 Ethernet driver doesn't work

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Following an upgrade from 13.04 to 13.10, gigabit card stopped working
  (100Mbps ethernet working fine on the motherboard still - KN9 Ultra).

  dmesg gives a load of warnings "r8169 0000:01:0a.0 eth0:
  rtl_phyar_cond == 0 (loop: 20, delay: 25)." and when rmmodding r8169
  and modprobing it, I get:

  [  125.198865] r8169 Gigabit Ethernet driver 2.3LK-NAPI loaded
  [  125.199151] r8169 0000:01:0a.0 (unregistered net_device): not PCI Express
  [  125.199669] r8169 0000:01:0a.0 eth0: RTL8169sb/8110sb at 0xffffc90000c5a000, 00:21:27:c9:5f:cf, XID 10000000 IRQ 18
  [  125.199677] r8169 0000:01:0a.0 eth0: jumbo features [frames: 7152 bytes, tx checksumming: ok]

  [  125.240366] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready

  Plugging out and then in the cable makes no difference.
