How about something in dmesg? Just type dmesg at a prompt. I would pipe it through more. This is what the tulip driver puts in there for my NetGear cards in my firewall. tulip.c:v0.89H 5/23/98 [EMAIL PROTECTED] eth0: Lite-On 82c168 PNIC at 0xd800, 00 a0 cc 50 73 a3, IRQ 10. eth0: MII transceiver found at MDIO address 1, config 3000 status 7829. eth0: Advertising 01e1 on PHY 1, previously advertising 01e1. eth1: Lite-On 82c168 PNIC at 0xd400, 00 a0 cc 50 6f c8, IRQ 5. eth1: MII transceiver found at MDIO address 1, config 3000 status 7829. eth1: Advertising 01e1 on PHY 1, previously advertising 01e1. eth0: Changing PNIC configuration to full-duplex, CSR6 812e0200. eth1: Changing PNIC configuration to half-duplex, CSR6 816e0000. it at least lets me know full or half duplex. Also, most switches have indicator lights that tell you if it's 10 or 100 and if it's half or full duplex.

Which doesn't really tell me what it is set to as far as the LAN goes. I can't find anything in /proc that helps either.
