|  i am just installing a few SMC EtherPower PCI cards into boxes running
|  2.1.5-RELEASE. this cards are 10/100Mbps auto-switching and are based
|  on the 21140 chip set.
|  
|  the OS probes the cards currently and installs the de0 driver. unfortunately
|  i have not found a way to force the cards to work at 10Mbps.
|  
|  is there anything i must change or set in the kernel config file to force
|  de0 to run at 10Mbps?

ifconfig de0 -link2
