Hi,

I've got a 21142 ethernet card in my PWS433a:

de0 at pic0 dev 3 function 0
de0: interrupting at dec 550 irq 8
de0: DEC 21142 [10-100Mb/s] pass 1.1
de0: address 00:00:f8:xx:xx:xx
de0: enabling 10baseT port

It's connected to a Netgear 10/100 hub.  When I boot the machine,
it comes up in 10baseT mode:

media: Ethernet 10baseT

And when I use "ifconfig -m de0" I get:

media: Ethernet 10baseT
status: active
supported Ethernet media:
     media 10base5
     media 10base2
     media 10baseT mediaopt full-duplex
     media 10baseT

How can I enable 100baseT mode?  I have a friend with an identical
computer/configuration, and his computer comes up in 100baseT mode
and seems to work fine.
