Re: 8139cp 0000:03:08.0: This (id 10ec:8139 rev 10) is not an 8139C+ compatible chip

For your problem you could try placing 8139too into
/etc/modules

That might see that your 8139too driver gets loaded first.
Incidentally comment any references to 8139cp that you run across. HTH

After one day of trying to dig up a solution for my problem. I have given up

You might need a little more patience using Linux ;-).

Nothing seems to be working. I still get the same error message
"8139cp 0000:03:08.0: This (id 10ec:8139 rev 10) is not an 8139C+ compatible chip"

You can blacklist the 8139cp module in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist file (might need to create this if it doesn't already exist):

blacklist 8139cp

and if you have 8139too in /etc/modules then the boot process should load that instead of 8139cp. I have checked on a machine which has an 8139too NIC and that works for me. There's a package called nictools-pci which has a file rtl8139-diag -- might be useful for fixing 8139 related probs.
