Hi Dan!
Sounds nice. I think there are a handful of fixes that should go into
our if* scripts. Could you do me a favor and repost with a diff to the
original ifup? `diff -u <orig> <new>'.
Also, instead of using ethtool and ifconfig for everything, I'd
suggest looking in sysfs to see if these values exist there. It would
be easier than parsing output. Since we don't install ethtool (that I
know about) in BLFS, it would be hard to put it in the network
scripts.
Look in /sys/class/net/<interface>/ at the different files there.
Also, try looking in /proc/net.
Sure I'll see how I can improve this. I will post my adjusments
shortly when I've had some time to sort it out.
Bye!
Go ahead and send me the updates to the hint, We can get it updated.
