I am running ubuntu 10.04 LTS on an HP Proliant DL180GS and the NIC is a
NC105 card. I have been trying to change the settings of the card using
ethtool to 1000baseT Full duplex  but get the following errors

sudo ethtool -s eth0 autoneg off speed 1000 duplex full
Cannot set new settings: Invalid argument
  not setting speed
  not setting duplex
  not setting autoneg

The output of ethtool -i eth0 is
driver: tg3
version: 3.102
firmware-version: 5722-v3.07
bus-info: 0000:07:00.0


and
 sudo ethtool eth0
Settings for eth0:

This version of Ubuntu is not supported by HP but they have tried to get it
to help.

I was wondering if anyone on the list has seen this and knows the
workaround. I can't upgrade the server to a newer version of ubuntu as of
yet as it is in production.
