Package: firmware-linux-nonfree
Version: 0.28+squeeze1

Two Dell PowerEdge R620 connected via crosslink using the onboard NICs (obviously a BCM5720 which is specifically produced for Dell and called BCM95720 then) don't negotiate to 1000baseT/Full, but only to 100baseT/Full.

Setting the speed to 1000baseT/Full using ethtool (ethtool -s eth2 speed 1000 duplex full) on both sides causes the interfaces to flap and finally to run on 100baseT again:

Hi

This bug was filed for a very old kernel or the bug is old itself
without resolution.

If you can reproduce it with

- the current version in unstable/testing
- the latest kernel from backports

please reopen the bug, see https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control
for details.

Regards,
Salvatore
