How to know what type of my NIC driver in my linux?

[frederick van tagero]

I recompiled the kernel, every thing done but the kernel know little about the NIC(10M/100M, but can not found it), who can tell me how to know what type of my current NIC drivers could be in current kernel?

Best Regards,
Frederick

Well, the latest network utility is Network Administration Tool and after launching this you seletct the Hardware tab. Here's a picture:

But there's also netconf and netconfig for older red hatters. Depends. What d'ya got?

hi

check if this is of help. contains all the compiled modules for the net drivers.

ls /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/net


also check if /proc/net/drivers also contains some info.
