Here is the output of pciconf -lv :

re0 at pci0:4:0:0: class=0x020000 card=0x84321043 chip=0x816810ec rev=0x06
hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'Realtek Semiconductor'
    device     = 'Gigabit Ethernet NIC(NDIS 6.0) (RTL8168/8111)'
    class      = network
    subclass   = ethernet

So I have rev=0x06 and you have rev=0x03. The dmesg output says I have an
unknown H/W revision.

The mainboard is fairly new. So I guess I have to report a bug and wait for
a driver update?

Thanks,

Michael
