This is broken in the for MII media types because the driver changes the 
autonegotiation advertisement but does not restart autonegotiation.  Check 
out the patch I posted to linux-tulip-bug, should be archived at

http://www.tux.org/hypermail/linux-tulip-bug/1999-Mar/0000.html

Maybe if I whine I can get Mr. Becker will comment as to whether my patch 
does everything correctly... ;)
