LinuxQuestions.org - Realtek r8168 kernel module errors on kernel 3.9.4

I have never had a good time with my Realtek r8168 network card, but I am stuck with it. I got it working... decently on my Ubuntu system by downloading and compiling the official realtek kernel module, but I cannot do the same on my new LFS system (Both Ubuntu and LFS run on the same machine, here). I tried enabling the r8169 kernel module in menuconfig, but nothing recognizes my network card, and when booting I get the messages "face wlan0 does not exist" and "face eth0 does not exist". My /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net-rules looks like:

Code:

# This file was automatically generated by the /lib/udev/write_net_rules

# program, run by the persistent-net-generator.rules rules file.

#

# You can modify it, as long as you keep each rule on a single

# line, and change only the value of the NAME= key.



# net device rtl8192ce

ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="net", SYSFS{address}=="7c:e9:d3:f2:86:06", NAME="wlan0"

What I would like to do is compile the official kernel module, but I get the following errors when I try to compile it:

Code:

I looked in the source code, and discovered that the compiler could not find "__devinit" and similar macros. After a bit of research, I discovered that these macros were removed from linux/init.h in version 3.8
How can I get this driver working, or how can I get my network working at all? Why doesn't the r8169 kernel module recognize my network card? Or does it? How can I tell?
