==============================================================
Additional info: I've:
kernel = 2.6.41.1-1.fc15.i686.PAE
cpu= AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5200+
gcc versión 4.6.1 20110908 (Red Hat 4.6.1-9) 
###
Driver from REALTEK web home...With kernel-PAE-2.6.40.6-0.fc15.i686 and previous versions all OK...but with kernel-PAE-2.6.41.1-1.fc15.i686 and kernel 3.0 (Fedora 16) start the problems.

Comment 1 Josh Boyer 2011-11-24 13:36:30 UTC
We don't support out-of-tree modules.  You'll need to take this up with Realtek or fix the driver yourself to work with a 3.1.1 based kernel (2.6.41.1 is 3.1.1)
