Hi Grant,

I quiet sure now that the pb come from the 2d nic of my pc.

It is a:
00:0b.0 Ethernet controller: 3Com Corporation 3c905B 100BaseTX [Cyclone] 
(rev 24)

I with google, I find back a mail of Andrew Morton in which he mentioned 
a diag tool for this nic (<http://www.scyld.com/diag/>). I launch it:
# ./vortex-diag -aem
[...]
Transceiver type in use:  10baseT.
  MAC settings: full-duplex.
                ^^^^^^^^^^^^
  Station address set to 00:10:4b:63:2e:bf.
  Configuration options 000a.
Saved EEPROM settings of a 3Com Vortex/Boomerang:
  3Com Node Address 00:10:4B:63:2E:BF (used as a unique ID only).
  OEM Station address 00:10:4B:63:2E:BF (used as the ethernet address).
   Device ID 9055,  Manufacturer ID 6d50.
   Manufacture date (MM/DD/YYYY) 3/17/1998, division 6, product NK.
   No BIOS ROM is present.
  Transceiver selection: 10baseT.
    Options: force full duplex, link beat required.
             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  PCI Subsystem IDs: Vendor 10b7 Device 9055.
[...]

So i will continue to see how to set it up in half-duplex (would it not 
be the default in 10BT?)

Cheers,
	Joel
