I just installed a new gigabit network interface card (NIC) in Linux. How do I tell if it is really set to gigabit speeds? I see ethtool
has an option to set the speed, but I can't seem to figure out how to report its current speed.

Just use a command like:
ethtool eth0
to get the needed info. Ex:$ sudo ethtool eth0 | grep Speed
