Hi all,
I am running Debian Sarge.
Just fitted a Gigabit NIC and it shows up as eth0
-------------
# dmesg |grep eth
eth0: DGE-530T Gigabit Ethernet Adapter
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It uses the "sk98lin" driver module.
Its working fine.
How ever I am not able to find out the spped in which it is working.
I tried "mii-tool" and "ethtool"
---------------------
# mii-tool eth0
SIOCGMIIPHY on 'eth0' failed: Bad address
# ethtool eth0
Settings for eth0:
No data available
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Could someone please tell me how to find the NIC speed in Linux?
In my OpenBSD the "ifconfig" output shows it.
------------------------------------
rl1: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX full-duplex)
status: active
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THe Linux "ifconfig does not give it in its output
----------------
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
