How does one know which chip he has.. I have allied telesyn and some other noname card, that use the rtl8139 chips.. lspci says this: 00:0d.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139 (rev 10) 00:14.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139 (rev 10) 00:11.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139 (rev 10) (I suppose that is not the rtl8139C class)
But I still get errors saying: eth0: Setting half-duplex based on auto-negotiated partner ability 0000.
