Title:
  Missing r8169 firmware warning when installing Trusty kernel

Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in linux-meta-lts-trusty package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I'm running the linux-generic-lts-saucy stack with no problem, but
  when I upgrade to linux-generic-lts-trusty on my 12.04 machine, I get
  this warning and had to revert back to the saucy stack:

  W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/rtl_nic/rtl8168g-3.fw for module r8169
  W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/rtl_nic/rtl8168g-2.fw for module r8169
  W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/rtl_nic/rtl8106e-2.fw for module r8169
  W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/rtl_nic/rtl8106e-1.fw for module r8169
  W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/rtl_nic/rtl8411-2.fw for module r8169

  I'm not sure if this has been fixed in a newer version of the kernel,
  but I wanted to put that out there.
