anyone know how to force network cards talk at gig speeds when all it

eth1: negotiated 100baseTx-FD flow-control, link ok
One of mii-tool's limitations is that it doesn't report gig speeds
correctly.
From the man page:
NOTE
This program is obsolete. Valid media are only 100baseT4,
100baseTx-FD,100baseTx-HD, 10baseT-FD and 10baseT-HD ethernet cards. For
replacement check eth-tool.
Using ethtool:
[root@el4-node1 ~]# ethtool eth0
Settings for eth0:
Supported ports: [ TP ]

Advertised link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full
