No! There is not link partner. 0000 is the default value for the register when there is no negotiation going on. If you have link beat _and_ the register is 0000, then no autonegotiation took place. If the link partner advertised "not capable of anything", the register will report 0001. -- Donald Becker becker@scyld.com Scyld Computing Corporation http://www.scyld.com 410 Severn Ave. Suite 210 Scyld Beowulf cluster system Annapolis MD 21403 410-990-9993 - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
