r8169 works fine here, from dmesg:

r8169 Gigabit Ethernet driver 2.3LK-NAPI loaded
r8169 0000:04:00.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17
r8169 0000:04:00.0: setting latency timer to 64
eth0: RTL8168b/8111b at 0xffffc200100b8000, 00:1d:7d:03:5e:98, XID 38000000 IRQ 378
...
r8169: eth0: link up

See: http://bugsplatter.id.au/kernel/boxen/pooh64/ for dmesg + config
