Most of the times you can use modinfo <modulename> to find out what module options are available and put the option you need in /etc/modprobe.conf. For most network cards you can set the link speed with a module parameter. I mainly use this method because mii-tool isn't failsafe with every interface. When using mii-tool on an E1000 NIC for example, I get kernel oopses sometimes. _______________________________________________ arch mailing list [email protected] http://www.archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
