InHisNameI have an astlinux system for my router.   Its based on gentoo from 7 years ago.  There is no emerge to install things with.  I want to fix setting on eth2 to 100Mbps full-duplex, but google only turns up 2 tools: mii-tool and ethtool, neither installed on my machine.   Now I found reference to changing /etc/modules.conf but I don't see a clue what to do in there, yet.16:15
InHisNameDoing a google on: modules.conf e1000 100Mbps full-duplex17:36
InHisNameturned up some useful references17:36
InHisNameI added the following stuff in [module] section before [global]   -- alias eth1 e1000               options e1000 Speed=100 Duplex=217:38
InHisNameIt appears to be working right at bootup, now.17:38
InHisNameIs there a way to query the eth2 / e1000 item to see what the speed & duplex really is at ?17:39

ChinnoDogWho is Gary Johnson and why should we be impressed?20:30
mobileturkeytwo term governer of new mexico and is running for president, for the Libertarian party20:31
InHisNameHe kinda looks like the Gary Johnson, presidential candidate, Is it him ?20:31
InHisNameOh you answered already20:32
mobileturkeyYes that's him20:32
jedijfInHisName: mii-tool?20:33
jedijfInHisName: or better yet, just write it the way you want it in modules.conf20:35
InHisNamemii-tool not installed.   No installer.  Disk nearly full.21:36
InHisNameI thought I had put it into modules.conf, but it still 'broke'.   Seems to loose cnx tween  192.168.15.135 and 192.168.15.1 <-- the gateway and 4G modem.    I'm guessing it is in auto mode and keeps jumping into 10Mbps & half-duplex.21:38
InHisNameI put this below into modules.conf  -- but it still lost  cnx21:41
