if im not mistaken, i believe it should do that automatically based on the
card, and the media that you have plugged into it. Maybe try setting the
media type to auto. What kind of NIC do you have? does it show up as being
used in lsmod?
from the ifconfig man page:
media type
Set the physical port or medium type to be used by the device.
Not all devices can change this setting, and those that can vary
in what values they support. Typical values for type are
10base2 (thin Ethernet), 10baseT (twisted-pair 10Mbps Ethernet),
AUI (external transceiver) and so on. The special medium type
of auto can be used to tell the driver to auto-sense the media.
Again, not all drivers can do this.
