On modern Linux kernels, sysfs has a lot of information about attacheds devices. I can tell that eth0 on my NSLU2 is using the ixp4xx_eth module by poking around in there: 0 dkg@igor:~$ cat /sys/class/net/eth0/uevent PHYSDEVPATH=/devices/platform/ixp4xx_eth.16 PHYSDEVBUS=platform PHYSDEVDRIVER=ixp4xx_eth INTERFACE=eth0 IFINDEX=2 0 dkg@igor:~$ BTW, on a system with a Linux kernel you can see a list of all network interfaces (even if they're not up) with: ls /sys/class/net but the best way to look at the networking stack is with /bin/ip. Read "man ip" for (lots of) details, but the basic levels of the networking hierarchy can be seen with: ip link ip neigh ip addr ip route hth, --dkg
