Forcing a 10/100 NIC to run at 10

[Derek Neighbors]

We have some of these at work.  They are supported like crap.  Here is the
bug that kicked our butt regularly in 2.4 kernels...

I would strongly suggest throwing a 3com or other well supported card in
there and save your time (time is money, network cards are cheap).  If you
have spent more than 2 hours on this problem you have spent more than what
a new NIC cost.
