yikes - yes, this would be it.
I could be wrong and i will double check:
I think when the e1000 says via ethtool "rx is on" - it means that it
is _advertising_ flow control as opposed to detecting partner has flow
control capability.
Auke, can you also check this as well?
Just found this in my todo box - a bit late :(
yes, that appears to be the correct interpretation: we never read back the detected FC
state from the hardware.
