Well, I just looked at the manual for the 4108, and it does support Auto-MDIX, but there is a possibility that it didn't detect and adjust properly. I'll add that to the list for the next try at this.

IIRC a HP 4100gl switch doesn't support Auto-MDIX, but a Cisco 3560 does, with the caveat that you need to turn it on on a per-interface basis, like so: interface FastEthernet 0/x mdix auto You need to be running 12.2(25)SEE or newer for that to work.
