I just got a Linksys EtherFast 10/100 PC card NIC (Model PCM100) for my
laptop.  It works just fine on switches (10 or 100), but fails on hubs.
As near as I can determine, it's just not auto-negotiating the duplex
right, and defaulting itself to full-duplex.  Gives me a solid 9k/sec
over 10mbit  :(

Double unfortunately, it gets grabbed by the ed driver, which means I
dont' have a way through ifconfig to smack it to half-duplex manually.
Any ideas on how to get it to negotiate right, or just force it down to
half-duplex?
