Probably editing /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules. |

The above file should have a comment before each line indicating what |
| 13 |
driver the device needs. Apart from that, you can probably peek |
| 14 |
into /sys. On my system, there seems to exist a directory named |
| 15 |
/sys/class/net/<device>/device/driver/module/drivers/pci\:<module>/, for |
| 16 |
instance for eth0 it's |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
/sys/class/net/eth0/device/driver/module/drivers/pci\:3c59x/ |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
So I see that eth0 is using driver 3c59x. This is a totally homebrew |
| 21 |
method, the result of 5-minute search, and most likely better method |
| 22 |
exist (which I'd like to know too). |
