I installed the Intrepid beta from Install CD because upgrade from
Hardy->Intrepid failed on the nVidia driver - there was absolutely no
way to get X up again (even the nVidia site drivers did not work because
Ubuntu screws up the nVidia kernel modules so that the nVidia
installer's compiled kernel
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ethtool -i eth0
driver: e1000
version: 7.3.20-k2-NAPI
firmware-version: 0.3-0
bus-info: :00:19.0
* Performed on Hardy since there is no eth0 interface right now in
Intrepid
So I was using that driver.. suppose I was lucky not to become f*cked up
:-)
Thanks

Issue the following command to determine the version of the installed network
adapter driver:
- ethtool -i
is the name of the ethernet device to query.
Use ifconfig to determine the device name
