This is the first case of one driver supporting two different cards, one 10/100 and one 10/100/1000. All the gigabit cards are 10/100/1000 as far as I know. I still think the driver should be listed in both the 100 Mbit and 1000 Mbit Ethernet menu sections, unless someone comes up with a better idea. -VAL
