I ran into a similar problem with a couple Linksys cards under both FBSD &
(ugh) Win95 -- telling the HP ProCurve 2424M to force 100BTX half-duplex
(didn't try full) fixed the problem....  Still seeing this autoneg problem
with my cheapy Linksys 100-only hub and my wife's Linksys card on '95...

You'd figure that autoneg would work when everything's by the same
manufacturer.... :)
