ikphy negotiation problem with cisco



I have a new board (Supermicro X7DVA-8/X7DVA-E) with a dual interface
as indicated below.  The problem is that this interfaces refuses to
auto-negotiate with a cisco 6500 gige port.  The only way to get link
is auto-neg on the wm and hard-configured 100m/half duplex.

Does anyone have this mac / phy combination that is working?

This is with a 2009/12/15 kernel.  I was going to try a newer kernel, but
with 'no options MODULAR' the new kernel is still trying to load mod_ffs,
which is built-in.  but, even with new modules, the machine just resets
after a few second pause after loading the ffs module.
