I tried the latest driver from Atheros: # modinfo ./atl1e.ko
filename: ./atl1e.ko version: 1.0.1.4 license: GPL author: Atheros Corporation, <[email protected]>, Jie Yang <[email protected]> description: Atheros Gigabit Ethernet driver srcversion: DF7295D1E698BE07EE3D18E That one give me an extra "Advertized link mode": Settings for eth0: Supported ports: [ TP ] Supported link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full Supports auto-negotiation: Yes Advertised link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full 1000baseT/Full Advertised auto-negotiation: Yes Speed: 100Mb/s Duplex: Full Port: Twisted Pair PHYAD: 0 Transceiver: internal Auto-negotiation: on Supports Wake-on: pg Wake-on: d Current message level: 0x00000001 (1) Link detected: yes But still 100Mbit on a 1GBit wire. Tried different switches and cables. It seems that this card is just "Fast Ethernet". The specs from HP claim this, and the driver in XP says so too. So I guess I'm just out of luck unless there is some magical firmware update? Is it a crippled Gbit card in this netbook? ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- On Karmic Netbook Remix, max speed of Atheros AR8132 / L1c with module atl1c is 100Mbit instead of 1000Mbit https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/510104 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
