Oh, sorry, I confused it with a different program. Hm, ethtool I'd put into the borderline category -- one argument in its favor is that you may need it in order to fix your networking so that you can get somewhere to install more packages. (This, for me, is the argument for tcpdump. You may need it installed in order to figure out why you can't install packages.) -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
