I have a 3com ethernet card which has been running on an ancient BSDI
system with "media 100BaseTX,full_duplex" sent to ifconfig.

After converting to FreeBSD I get

vx0: <3COM 3C595 Fast Etherlink III PCI> rev 0x00 int a irq 10 on pci0.10.0
utp/tx[*utp*]: disable 'auto select' with DOS util! address 00:60:97:07:d2:e7

and the vx man page says

   The vx driver provides support for the 3Com 3c590 and 3c595
   EtherLink III and Fast EtherLink III PCI Ethernet cards in
   10 Mbps mode.

Does that mean I have to use some other type of card to get the higher
speed with FreeBSD?
