BTW... I am unable to reproduce this.

On my BP6:

tlp1 at pci0 dev 15 function 0: DECchip 21140A Ethernet, pass 2.0
tlp1: interrupting at irq 9
tlp1: DEC DE500-AA, Ethernet address 00:00:f8:05:c1:cc
nsphy0 at tlp1 phy 5: DP83840 10/100 media interface, rev. 0
nsphy0: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto

On my AlphaServer 1200:

tlp0 at pci1 dev 3 function 0: DECchip 21140A Ethernet, pass 2.2
tlp0: interrupting at kn300 irq 12
tlp0: DEC DE500-AA, Ethernet address 00:00:f8:1a:d8:f6
nsphy0 at tlp0 phy 5: DP83840 10/100 media interface, rev. 0
nsphy0: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto

Both do full-duplex quite happily with no hackery needed.

What kind of switches are you plugged into?
