Andrew,

mii-tool eth0 should tell you what the cards defaulted to.  mii-tool can
also change the current states for speed and duplex.  See the man page.

You did not say what chipset was on the linksys card, but module
parameters probably exist that can be added as options to modules.conf
(FC1) or modprobe.conf (FC2). Look in
/usr/src/linux-kernel-rev/Documentation.

I would have thought that the cards and router would have played
together better.  During my short stint with Linksys equipment
autonegotiation worked pretty well.
