I just setup my 3c90x family ethernet card for 
roadrunner and I get the following.  The media is
half-duplex.  It says it supports full-duplex.
Do I want to somehow change this to full-duplex?
Would I do this in my dhclient.conf file?
Seems full-duplex is always desired over half-duplex from
what I have experienced.


mark@:/usr/local/bin:>ifconfig -a
xl0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 24.95.188.181 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 24.95.188.255
        ether 00:50:04:ce:5d:18
        media: 10baseT/UTP <half-duplex>
        supported media: 10baseT/UTP <full-duplex> 10baseT/UTP
<half-duplex> 10baseT/UTP                   

----- more ifconfig -a snipped ----
