My bad, I should have said that I wanted to get this info programmaticly.*I* know which is which, but I don't want to configure my scripts to know. However, as you say system-config-network lists the hardware, so having spent some quality time with a python debugger, the following gives me what I need: $ python -c 'import kudzu; print kudzu.probe(kudzu.CLASS_NETWORK, kudzu.BUS_UNSPEC,kudzu.PROBE_SAFE)' [Desc: Broadcom Corporation NetLink BCM5906M Fast Ethernet PCI Express Driver: tg3 Device: eth0 , Desc: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection Driver: iwl3945 Device: wlan0 ]
