Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: net-tools
On newer kernels the e1000 nic driver was replaced by the e1000e driver.
mii-tool doesn't work with that new driver:
SIOCGMIIPHY on 'eth1' failed: Resource temporarily unavailable
SIOCGMIIREG on eth2 failed: Input/output error
SIOCGMIIREG on eth2 failed: Input/output error
No MII transceiver present!.
SIOCGMIIREG on eth3 failed: Input/output error

SIOCGMIIREG on eth5 failed: Input/output error
SIOCGMIIREG on eth5 failed: Input/output error

hardy 8.04.4 LTS (net-tools 1.60-19ubuntu1) uses the e1000 driver and
works fine. The latest lucid release uses the e1000e (net-tools
1.60-23ubuntu2) driver and it doesn' work.
Is mii-tool descontinued?
Thanks.
