 OK, on the LX with QFE card it looked a bit different:
 
  - "autoselect" just works and comes up 100mbitTX full-duplex
 
  - dhcpcd did not work out of the box as I forgot to remake /dev/bpf
    (it has become a cloning device in -7). The update installed me
    a new /dev/MAKEDEV, but did not touch my device nodes.
 
    Doing:
 
 	cd /dev
 	sh MAKEDEV bpf
 
    fixed this.
 
  - dhcpcd was confused by the mulitple ethernet cards with identical mac
    address, I had to set local-mac-addres? to true in OF.
 
 But now it works fine, both with static and dhcp addresses.
 
 Still leaves the nway mishandling on the U2 (for me) and your machine as
 an issue. Can you please test if forcing the media type fixes it for you
 as well?
