I am happy that you should say that. I will try to create a patch for e100, e1000e, igb and ixgbe. Before that, I should fix the following problems. > As far as the e1000 patch goes, it has a number of issues which were > found in testing.

Oh, My patch is full of problem. The rest is my work. I will resend the patch after test of all ethtool's options. At that time, I will tell you contents of my tests. And I sad WOL works on my patch in previous mail. But WOL doesn't work. Sorry, I wasn't myself.
