I had the same issue.

To solve (at least in my circumstance): rename /etc/modprobe.d/r8169_blacklist.conf to r8169_blacklist.conf.bk . and remove the r8168 (pacman -R r8168) driver as it clashes with the new kernel.

Hmm, but I'm using r8168 for a reason, because I had issues with the r8169 driver.

I also had to use r8168 for almost a year. But, with the latest kernels (since about 3.1.6, maybe), r8169 has been working just fine. Go ahead and give it a try.

Yeah, i had problems with r8169 too.. but like ratcheer said since the new kernel it works fine

r8168 should work after the update to 8.028.00-5.

shaurz · 2012-05-05 01:05:18

I tried going back to the r8169 driver but it still has the same problem (doesn't restore from sleep). Anyway the r8168 driver has been updated and is working now.
