Simon, All:
At 15:30 01/06/2004. Simon Barner had this to say:

Sadly, no joy.
To refresh, I'm using an adlink ebc-2000 (supplied by Ecrin
Systems in France). It has 3 on-board NICs that are identified
as <Intel 82559 Pro/100 Ethernet> by the kernel during boot
(which agrees with adlink's datasheet for this device).
The devices do not come up under the miibus device, however,
and run in 'cripple-mode'. They work, but at 10Mb. If I try
to change that by using ifconfig fxp0 media commands, I get:
ifconfig: SIOCSIFMEDIA: Device not configured
ifconfig fxp0 reports:
fxp0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet x.y.z.188 netmask 0xffff0000 broadcast x.y.z.255
ether 00:30:64:gh:ij:kl
media: Ethernet manual
Additionally, there are two other fxp devices on a PCI plug-in
card, and they come up happy.

So, if you've read this far,
1) It says 'Ethernet manual'. Does that mean that there will be
a method (ioctl or similar) in the driver that allows me to make
explicit calls to the devices to configure 100Mb full duplex, for
example, or even Auto if it is supported. Before you say 'look
at the code yourself', assume that I'm doing so as you read this :>
2) Am I SOL, short of doing it myself in the fxp driver?
TIA,
rip
