It's entirely possible for your card to pick wrong, particularly when the
device on the other end doesn't support Nway autonegotiation at all, which
most (all?) 10baseT hubs won't.

If it's full-duplex, it's not a hub.  It's as simple as that.  As Jonathan
pointed out, a hub is a dumb repeater with N taps.  It does *not* create
a new CSMA collision domain at each port as a switch does.
