I've found other similar bugs all marked "fix released" before:

r8169 driver does not detect link

realtek gigabit ethernet not recognised on feisty
https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/79626

My card's PCI ID is 10ec:8168.

I also tested it in Ubuntu Maverick RC (live desktop) and although the Network Manager searched for a few seconds, couldn't obtain a lease.

I'll be trying the workaround mentioned in the above bugs and reporting back.
