Re: [gentoo-user] Best way to keep a networkcard into 100mbit full duplex

mii-tool is no longer in development, it is therefore a better idea to use ethtool, especially with gigabit cards. I also believe that ethtool has quite a few more functions than mii-tool. Nick Niemeyer On 5/25/05, Michael Steinmann [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: check for available options
