Somehow I have the feeling that full duplex Ethernet versus half duplex
Ethernet is more a theoretical issue then a real life one. In particular, I
would not have this issue got me too much busy with. I believe the
Ethernet-HOWTO has a section about it.

I would start by verifying that the NICs are capable of 100MB. The NICs specs
should tell you that. The next thing are the drivers. You have to verify that
there are device drivers for 100MB for your NICs. The Ethernet-HOWTO discusses
it.
That is all I can say about the subject. To summarize: start with the
Ethernet-HOWTO.
