Hi!
I can't get 100Mbit HalfDuplex on both cards at the same time...

I have looked throu several messages about this topic, but was unable to
find any information on my problem...
Now, i have an Intel i686 with 2 3com905BTX NIC's and RedHat 5.0
installed.
I have downloaded and installed the latest driver (3c59x.c:v0.99F
8/7/98).
I have 1 100Mbit HalfDuplex HUB connected to NIC 1, and 10/100Mbit
HalfDuplex HUB connected to NIC 2.

When i insmod the module 3c59x i get both NIC's to go to 100Mbit
HalfDuplex. I can then configure NIC 1 to whatever network (ifconfig
inet bla.bla.bla.bla up), but when i try that with NIC 2 it flash it's
10/100Mbit link-lights before it into 10Mbit HalfDuplex mode.  I have
tried to pass some options to the module, but without any affect.

Anyone? All tips/hins are welcome.

Sencerly, Rickard.
