My recollection is that mii-tool(8) tends to work where ethtool(8) does
not, but it's been a while since I've had to worry.

Note that GigE needs to know which end is primary and which end is
secondary, so if you disable autoneg then you also need to tell the
device which side of the link it is.  GigE is Point-to-Point.

On FreeBSD, this is typically managed with ifconfig and using the link0
media option (strictly speaking, varies by driver).  I've no idea how
Linux manages this, but hopefully this is enough to get you pointed in
the right direction?
