I had a simmilar problem once. Turned out my Linksys Gigabit Switches didn´t quite like to work with Intel and Realtek NICs. Only Marvel could get GiBit speed. All else negotiated at 100 and 10.I've just booted kernel 2.6.26 (Debian lenny) on my new Thinkpad X300. Things seem working OK so far except I can't get gigabit ethernet. Output from ethtool says: Settings for eth0: Supported ports: [ TP ]Supported link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full 1000baseT/Full Supports auto-negotiation: Yes Advertised link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full 1000baseT/Full Advertised auto-negotiation: YesSpeed: 100Mb/s Duplex: Full Port: Twisted Pair PHYAD: 1 Transceiver: internal Auto-negotiation: on Supports Wake-on: pumbag Wake-on: g Current message level: 0x00000001 (1) Link detected: yes As you can see both the hardware and the link support full duplex 1000baseT, but I'm getting only 100Mb/s (confirmed by lights on switch). I tried sudo ifconfig eth0 media 1000baseT but that media type isn't even recognized. I also tried sudo ethtool -s eth0 speed 1000 but this seems to have broken the ethernet port entirely (although a reboot brings it back). Does anybody have any ideas? Norman P.S. After all this messaing around, it now negotiates down to 10Mb/s. Booting 2.6.24 seems to get back to 100Mb/s. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-laptop" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
I tried D-Link Switches an had GiBit on all NICs again. Regards Norman (also) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-laptop" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
