>Description:
I cannot set mediaopt to my network card.

dmesg | grep xl0 
xl0: <3Com 3c905B-TX Fast Etherlink XL> port 0xa400-0xa47f mem 0xdf800000-0xdf80007f irq 15 at device 10.0 on pci0
xl0: Ethernet address: 00:10:5a:e2:53:58

felix# ifconfig xl0
xl0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 10.0.0.10 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.0.255
        ether 00:10:5a:e2:53:58 
        media: 10baseT/UTP status: active
        supported media: autoselect 100baseTX <full-duplex> 100baseTX 10baseT/UTP <full-duplex> 10baseT/UTP 100baseTX <hw-loopback>

Here is my problem:

felix# ifconfig xl0 mediaopt half-duplex
ifconfig: SIOCSIFMEDIA: Device not configured

i cannot set mediaopt at all
>How-To-Repeat:
get a xl netcard configured then:
felix# ifconfig xl0 mediaopt half-duplex
