those of you using qfe cards, and needing varying configs on
different ports might find the following useful (courtesy a friend
who's just been working on this very problem):

(note caveat if you have multiple qfe cards in a box)

Also we have finished testing of the NAFO Full duplex issue.  It is possible
to 
set the driver settings in the /kernel/drv/qfe.conf file as follows

name="qfe" class="sbus"
reg=0x0,0x8c20000,0x00000108,0x0,0x8c22000,0x00002000,0x0,
0x8c24000,0x00002000,0x0,0x8c26000,0x00002000,0x0,0x8c27000,
0x00000020
adv_autoneg_cap=0 adv_100fdx_cap=1 adv_100hdx_cap=0 adv_10fdx_cap=0
adv_10hdx_cap=0;

Where the registers are gained from the prtconf -v output for each instance
of 
the card.

Please note that there is a minor issue.  When you set the reg it will
propogate 
to each instance symmetrically on each card as they share the same
registers.  
You are unable to set the exact instance within the qfe.conf file.

EG if you try and set in for instance 1 and have a second card it will also
set 
it for instance 5 etc and vica versa.  This is being looked into.
