Could you at least post the PCI vendor/product ID for the network device that "did not work" ?
Also, if you use the search function you'll see that there are a lot of people with Realtek RTL8111/8168/8411 that are driven by the r8169 and not r8168.
So you might also add some information on why you think that you need r8168 in particular, and what's actually not working.

I'm confused. Initially you asked about drivers for RTL8111/RTL8168 and mentioned it's not working. Now you ask about RTL8125 ?
Maybe you can add some context information. You don't have a wired network adapter yet, or do you want to buy an additional one? Also, what's the use case, what do you want to do with it?
And do you already have that card or not ?

I want documentation how to set up an install drivers or its it impossible?
I have this card, its works nice with windows 10, but may update make some issue with other things.
Why its works with fedora but not in ubuntu\mint i dont know?
that is also ustanable is mellanox connect x1 SFP+ works nice?
Its only intel and mellanox full support for linux?
Hopeful i think its 2,5 times faster than 1 gigabit lan. its possible to use SFP+ instead. But i want option if that is to hard.
I think its soon will come 2.5 gigabit switch\router.

If you don't provide the PCI ID's can't really help you any further.

That is supported by the r8169 driver that comes with the kernel:
- Code: Select all
[doktor5000@Mageia7]─[17:45:20]─[~] sudo modprobe -c | grep -i "10ec.*8125"
alias pci:v000010ECd00008125sv*sd*bc*sc*i* r8169
[doktor5000@Mageia7]─[17:45:22]─[~]
As you don't mention what the actual problem is with that card under Mageia, can't help you any further.

First of all, explain whats going on wrong on your machine.
1. Is that card detected by the system but not listing in the Network Applet ?
2. Is the card softblocked ? ( try this command - rfkill list all )

@jeevanism: rfkill does not apply to regular wired / ethernet cards.

Most say its poor support:
If you are running the target kernel, then you should be able to do :
# ./autorun.sh (as root or with sudo)
You can check whether the driver is loaded by using following commands.
# lsmod | grep r8125
# ifconfig -a
If there is a device name, ethX, shown on the monitor, the linux
driver is loaded. Then, you can use the following command to activate
the ethX.
# ifconfig ethX up
,where X=0,1,2,...
