Anyone know of a way to get a description of a given interface like the kernel prints at boot time from user-space for a 2.4.x kernel? I could search dmesg output, but I would rather not have to parse that. There doesn't seem to be anything obvious in /proc. e.g. something like (which is from dmesg) e100: eth0: Intel(R) PRO/100 Network Connection I could also live with just a mapping of interface name to driver. -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
