Hi guys i recently installed debian and i have 2 network card. the onboard card is being recognised by the system; the other a dlink DGE-528T BI is not active. On startup of the server its giving me the error (r8169 0000:05:00:0 (Unregistered net dev)) and when i ran update-initramfs -u, give"W Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/rtl_nic/rtl8168f-1.fw for module r8169"
i used wget to get the frmware-nonfree_0.36+wheezy.1.tar.gz and used tar xvf package.tar.gz to unpack it into tmp folder. now the problem is to install the required drivers, how do i do it? below is wat i have done and errors i got: root@Unigrad-File-Server:/tmp# cd/firmware-nonfree/realtek/rtl_nic/ bash: cd/firmware-nonfree/realtek/rtl_nic/: No such file or directory root@Unigrad-File-Server:/tmp# cd /firmware-nonfree/realtek/rtl_nic/ bash: cd: /firmware-nonfree/realtek/rtl_nic/: No such file or directory root@Unigrad-File-Server:/tmp# cd /tmp/firmware-nonfree/realtek/rtl_nic/ root@Unigrad-File-Server:/tmp/firmware-nonfree/realtek/rtl_nic# sh /rtl8168f-1.fw sh: 0: Can't open /rtl8168f-1.fw root@Unigrad-File-Server:/tmp/firmware-nonfree/realtek/rtl_nic# cd root@Unigrad-File-Server:~# cd /tmp root@Unigrad-File-Server:/tmp# cd /debian bash: cd: /debian: No such file or directory root@Unigrad-File-Server:/tmp# cd /tmp/debian bash: cd: /tmp/debian: No such file or directory root@Unigrad-File-Server:/tmp# cd /non-free/debian bash: cd: /non-free/debian: No such file or directory root@Unigrad-File-Server:/tmp# cd /tmp/firmware-nonfree/debian root@Unigrad-File-Server:/tmp/firmware-nonfree/debian# ./configure bash: ./configure: No such file or directory root@Unigrad-File-Server:/tmp/firmware-nonfree/debian# make install firmware-realtek.postinst make: *** No rule to make target `install'.

I would rather try to download and install this package: https://packages.debian.org/squeeze/firmware-realtek
apt-get install firmware-realtek |
apt-get install firmware-realtek
giving the following error: E: Unable to locate package firmware-realtek |
so download the package from the link I gave and dpkg --install <packagefile>.deb. Or you need to edit /etc/apt/sources.list, you need to add the non-free repo
