	Interesting Linux Commands. The thing is the card is quite new, based on r8169, d-link. And one builtin. Code: 00:0a.0 Bridge: nVidia Corporation CK804 Ethernet Controller (rev a3) 05:06.0 Ethernet controller: D-Link System Inc DGE-528T Gigabit Ethernet Adapter (rev 10) AFAIK not all Linux systems have /dev/dsp as well. And that "trick" is really nasty, I would kill for that.

	Interesting Linux Commands. You are right. Some older cards don't work with ethtool.BTW which card you are using. also can you provide the output of ifconfig -a

	Interesting Linux Commands. seems that nt all cards support identification via blinking, it outputs the following: Code: Cannot identify NIC: Operation not supported
