Hello Don, Just quickly yes you are correct that I meant 3.1.15 of the driver so no problems there :)
Here is the additional output you requested: # lspci -ns 0000:04:00.0 04:00.0 0200: 8086:10f1 (rev 01) However I don't appear to have any defined eth devices for these interfaces, so nothing for ethtool to probe beyond the on-board intel Intel(R) PRO/1000 devices. I tried with the 3.1.15 driver and the result was the same: [ 830.287140] Intel(R) 10 Gigabit PCI Express Network Driver - version 3.1.15-NAPI [ 830.294522] Copyright (c) 1999-2010 Intel Corporation.

Much appreciate the assistance by the way.
