Hi,

When i am trying to download the manual
of 8139C from realtek site, I am getting
8139C(L) manual. And as per that the 
device id should be 8129 for 8139C(L).

So there is a possibility that if you 
enable the CONFIG_8139TOO_8129 you might 
get the card working.

Leo,
Have you enabled 
"Support for older RTL-8129/8130 boards" 
option in the make menuconfig(that will enable the 
 CONFIG_8139TOO_8129 )? If not then can you enable 
it and try out ?

Regards,
KK.
