Re: DEC21142

I am using the same driver for the network card in my PWS500au. In  SRM I
set it to FASTFD, so the card is forced to run at 100Mb/s full duplex. So
when the machine starts up the LEDs on my switch show it is running at
100Mb/s full duplex. Once Linux initialises the driver for eth0, the card no
longer is opertating at full duplex. This can be seen from my mini switch
diagnostic LEDs. Does anyone know how to force the driver to use full
duplex?
