Quite a few people have reported full duplex problems with the elxl

duplex negotiation?
I have tried forcing half duplex 100Mbps in /kernel/drv/elxl.conf, but it
didn't help. With the old card I remember even booting DOS and using
some dos based 3com utility to change mode to half duplex.
Yep. AFAIR, it's 3C90XCFG.EXE
OK, to recapitulate: I have managed to find an old floppy with the above
utility (btw, volcheck didn't react to floppies on my machine here), and
after changing (and hard-coding) it to half-duplex 100Mbps and booted back
in solaris, it works fine. NFS copy (and dd) works fine, there are no
carrier_errors and everything seem to work fine.
We need to fix 3com network driver.
Thanks for all the help and bye, Dragan
