Not that I know of, but I've been surprised before... I second John's lspci suggestion, and if the speed is not immediately apparent, you can always plug the chip number (82540EP in John's case) into a search engine and it should be pretty easy to find the capabilities that way. -Mark C _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
