Ghaith,
I think that you shouldn't do this this way, but so be it. It's
generally spekaing to 'force' a specific setting. In most cards and
switches this disables all negotiation, and can lead to all sorts of
strange problems. Especially regard duplex issues.
put this in /etc/conf.d/net
pre(){
if [ ${IFACE} == "eth0" ]; then
mii-tool -F 10baseT-FD eth0
fi
sleep .3
}
That ought to work. If that doesn't work, then emerge sync and update
baselayout.
thanks,
Joshua

well actually it can function on 100 mbps but it would be extremly slow for
some reason (really long cable) so the isp just told me to keep the link at
10 mbps.
