I have had duplex issues at work recently. Though networking tells me
that the hub is set to 100FD my systems came up at 100HD and I get
networking errors, slowness, and sometimes it just doest't work. Oncethe system us up most cards work well with mii-tool, but ip your card
isn't mii, or you can't get mii stuff installed you gotta gotta read
the NIC dirver docs to force it to the right setting you need.
