Even worse. Kudzu blew the identification. It is really a "3com940
1000base?". STill, ethtool -s eth0 duplex half doesn't work. So, back to

OK, but as it turns out, there are no modules for this card. I do have a
second card in there, a 3com501, and Kudzu won't even recognize it. I
believe there's a big bug to swat for that one in bugzilla. Anyway...

Yep. Unfortunately, I don't have any modules for it, and I don't know
where to get one.
There is a module loaded for it, or it would not work.
Post the output of lsmod and we can help identify it for you.
