Does anyone know where I can find a tcpip package that has the patch compiled in to get mii-tool to work with 2.6? Or even the patch itself? I have looked and looked and all that I seem to be able to find are references to the patch, or packages that have the patch, but there is nowhere to download it.
mii-tool works on all my slackware machines running the 2.6 kernel, so I don't think there's a patch. Maybe your problem is you're trying to identify a gigabit network card which mii-tool doesn't support. In order to identify gigabit cards you need to use ethtool (also good for 10/100 network cards)
