forcing D-Link 530 into Full-Duplex
I have a D-Link 530 card using a compiled-in via-rhine driver as eth0.
The card is talking to an identical card in a computer that runs
FreeBSD. I'm seeing collisions on the Linux side of the link, and am
wondering what parameters I should pass the kernel to force the card
into Full-duplex 100base mode, and how to pass those params. (I
already did that on the FreeBSD side).
FWIW, here's the output from ifconfig and dmesg:
