Folks,
I recently replaced a FE 3Com card in my Linux server (hostname is
imladris) with a Netgear GigE card. I am unable to set it to 1000FD, no
matter what I do. I tried forcing it using 'ethtool -s', and setting
autoneg off and on. Rebooting didn't help. Using a different port on
my GigE switch/hub didn't help.
BTW - I also put a duplicate Netgear GigE card into another Linux server
(hostname is numenor; additional NIC, not a replacement -- if it
matters). On numenor, that NIC is at 1000FD.
I have not yet tried swapping the port and ethernet cable between
imladris and numenor...
Any other suggestions? I included some system information below.
I would think the obvious next step would be to swap the NIC which works
and the NIC that doesn't, and see if the failure stays with the system
or moves with the card. Or goes away, in which case you document and
either use or research depending on your nature and available time.
