For completeness, it would be nice to have the output when the cable is unplugged too .... note that in 2.4.23pre2 MII support was added for a lot of cards, hopefully this will be merged in to a packaged kernel soon (or if you have time to compile a kernel you could check ...). > > # ifstatus -v eth0 > eth0: > SIOCETHTOOL failed (Operation not supported) > SIOCGMIIPHY: unplugged > SIOCDEVPRIVATE: unplugged > Wireless failed. > > # mii-tool -v > eth0: negotiated 100baseTx-FD, link ok > product info: National DP83840A rev 1 > basic mode: autonegotiation enabled > basic status: autonegotiation complete, link ok > capabilities: 100baseTx-FD 100baseTx-HD 10baseT-FD 10baseT-HD > advertising: 100baseTx-FD 100baseTx-HD 10baseT-FD 10baseT-HD > link partner: 100baseTx-FD 100baseTx-HD 10baseT-FD 10baseT-HD flow-control Hmm, it seems mii-tool and ifstatus's SIOCGMIIPHY support differ in opinion if they were both run while plugged. Maybe this *is* an ifplugd big? But it would be easier to check if you gave the output when you are unplugged. > > This card seems not to be on the blacklist. > The blacklist isn't in the kernel, I think it was in the drakxtools, but my cooker mailbox doesn't go back far enough to check exaclty how this was done. The effect you would see is the "Network hotplugging" would be unchecked by default.
