[vortex] A-Vortex Kernel 2.6.2 100 Full Duplex

[Beliera, Ariel]

I hope someone could help me with this issue, I've just compile the new
stable kernel in my dear box, I was using 2.4.X so I decided
To jump the new one.

root@skywalker:# uname -a
Linux skywalker 2.6.2 #4 SMP Wed Feb 18 21:10:45 ART 2004 i686 unknown
unknown GNU/Linux

I've got two interfaces and one is a 3Com:

root@skywalker:# lspci | grep 3Com
02:09.0 Ethernet controller: 3Com Corporation 3c905B 100BaseTX [Cyclone]
(rev 24)

When I query the interface I received the above message:

MII TOOL
root@skywalker:/# mii-tool 
SIOCGMIIPHY on 'eth0' failed: Operation not supported
SIOCGMIIPHY on 'eth1' failed: Operation not supported
no MII interfaces found
ETHTOOL
root@skywalker:/# ethtool eth0
Settings for eth0:
No data available

I have no trouble in setting up the eepro100 with ethtool [ ethtool -s eth0
speed 100 duplex full autoneg off ]; I wonder how I can resolve the behavior
with the 3c59x.
