I foud the solution to the problem on fedoraforum.
here's the link:

and here's the solution:
<quote>
If you are using Realtek's Linux driver version 1.04 then try editing 
src/r1000_n.c by replacing 'MODULE_PARM' with 'MODULE_PARM_DESC' on 
lines 51 - 53. After that you shouldn't run into any errors when 
executing your make commands. You might also have to edit your 
/etc/modprobe.conf and add the line 'alias eth0 r1000'.

hope it helps!!
