[AFMUG] 1G/10G switch won't negotiate 1g on sfp

[TJ Trout]

I have a newly deployed ibm g8124 switch and all of the ports auto default
to auto negotiation if the port flaps, I have several 1G copper sfp, and
several 10G DAC/SFP that always work flawlessly but i have one single 1G
sfp that won't come up unless I manually disable auto negotiation then it
comes up fine until the next time the link goes down, is this something
that would likely be fixed buy firmware update or should I try another
model SFP?
