However r8169 does not implement this operation yet. Thanks - I just thought that supporting a module parameter (like e1000'= s =46lowControl=3D2) would be a small thing to ask, as opposed to support= ing ethtool. But of course if ethtool is to be eventually supported by r8169, then adding a parameter would be redundant. Kind regards, Alkis Georgopoulos
