Does the fxp driver for this nic actually make use of any of the seemingly "optimized for Windows" functionality:- Advanced management capabilities help lower support costs Wake on LAN* for remote system wake-up and troubleshooting Intel® Boot Agent for remote PC deployment Intel® PROSet II Utility for easy configuration Not that I'm looking to do any of that, but its handy to know just what's possible (or not).
