I have a SMC 10/100Mbit/sec card attached to a 10Mbit/sec hub from
3COM.  As soon as the the driver initialises the green light on the port
goes off.  

I have changed my sysconfig file so that de0 has the -link2 switch set.
Running ifconfig de0 -link2 says that the de0 is now set to 10baseT. 
However, this does not reinitialise the port on the hub.  With the
change to the sysconfig file, the de0 driver is found during the PCI bus
scan and set to 100Mbit/sec.  Again the port light goes off and even
when the port is set to 10Mbit/sec the 3COM hub is not initialised
again.

What can I do?  I am going spare so please help.

Regards,

Hugh.
