I'd actually argue that ethtool is right -- there really isn't any valid number TO report. Reporting the actual physical interface speed would be wrong in that the memory speed interface isn't actually limited to that speed, and reporting the actual memory interface speed is wrong in that it's a theoretical number that you won't ever actually get. I guess my question is: why do they care? Does the application behave differently with different interface speeds, or is this one of those checkbox evals where "must have gigE support" is on there? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
