This does not actually answer my question. What I'm interested to
understand is _why_ you want to do that. As mentioned before,
autonegotiation is usually a good thing to have, and mandatory in many
cases. If you disable it, you probably want to work around some
problem (eventually caused by broken or mis-designed hardware), and
depending on the nature of the problem there might be better ways to
solve it.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
