You need to say 'Y' in ->
-- Code maturity level options
-- Prompt for development and/or incomplete code/drivers
Then you'll have
-- Network device support
-- Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit)
-- RealTek 8129/8139 (not 8019/8029!) support (NEW)
Hope this helps.

Thank you. Shame on me, this solution shows up with
google.fr/search?q=CONFIG_RTL8139 ... (though, can you add in the
linux-2.2.22/Documentation/Configure.help file that CONFIG_RTL8139 is an
experimental driver ? Alternatively, does it exist a file containing this
type of datas (e.g., for CONFIG_RTL8139 : Code maturity level options ->
Prompt for development + Network device support -> Ethernet (10 or
100Mbit) -> RealTek 8129/8139).
Thank you for both your helps !
[end of story: Yesterday, I have compiled tht rtl8139 driver by hacking
the Makefiles, and I didn't try make xconfig of make config]
