3c59x problems

I have just installed Fedora for the first time, and am running into
problems with my NIC.  The box has a 3com 905B card in it, which is capable
of 100full.  The OS seems to recognize this capability, and also recognizes
the link partner also has this capability.  However, the link auto
negotiates to 10full.  I have tried forcing it via mii-tool, but it won't
take the change.  I added these lines to modules.conf:

"options 3c59x options=4 full_duplex=1"

But, that failed to obtain a link at all.  Below is the output of mii-tool
with no driver options:

eth0: 10 Mbit, full duplex, link ok
  product info: vendor 01:e1:c1, model 56 rev 7
  basic mode:   isolate, collision test, 10 Mbit, full duplex
  basic status: autonegotiation restarted, link ok
  capabilities:
  advertising:  100baseT4 100baseTx-FD 100baseTx-HD flow-control
  link partner: 100baseT4 100baseTx-FD 100baseTx-HD flow-control


Any ideas how I can force this to 100full?

Thanks.

Jason
