>> dmesg
The following is the output produced by typing the "dmesg"-command, a command that will show all output during boot, and uptill now. If you're going to check this information out for yourselves, you will have to do it directly after boot since the Realtek-8169 will fill this with debug messages over a short period of time if there is no physical cable connected to it.
Bootdata ok (command line is root=/dev/hda3 ro console=tty0 quiet splash)

PCI: Using ACPI for IRQ routing
** PCI interrupts are no longer routed automatically. If this
** causes a device to stop working, it is probably because the
** driver failed to call pci_enable_device(). As a temporary
** workaround, the "pci=routeirq" argument restores the old
** behavior. If this argument makes the device work again,
** please email the output of "lspci" to bjorn.helgaas@hp.com
** so I can fix the driver.
