Just for my understanding : Do people from realtek are working on this ?

I know Realtek deliver high quality drivers for years but each time it
takes several YEARS to make it work normally on the current LTS Ubuntu
release.

Isn't it in their interest that their products work great on Ubuntu OOTB
?

We choose realtek for our Ubuntu preinstalled machines because we knew
they would support GNU/LInux, but that ain't really true at last.
