hi, i use slackware 10... i installed a gnome applet that shows the netspeed (named netspeed). When i check it, it shows always 9-10 kbyte per second data transfer rate while there's no transfer.. so i checked my eth statistics from ifconfig and i see that RX value and applets value same.. i visited kernelnewbies irc channel and they checked and compared the 8139too eth driver in 2.4 and 2.6 kernel series.. they think that there's no differences in the drivers so they think that it may be a bug about packetsize.. i'm almost a beginner user and they told me that send an e-mail to this address with my lspci ---vvv log so i attached it... i hope i can solve this problem, i cant see my transfer speed right and it makes me angry.. thanks ;) - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
