Thank you for your answer, but it doesn't work for me. I have the following 
messages.

$ mii-diag -F 100BaseTx
Using the default interface 'eth0'.
Setting the speed to "fixed", Control register 2100.
Basic registers of MII PHY #31:  ffff ffff ffff ffff ffff ffff ffff ffff.
  No MII transceiver present!.

$ mii-diag -R
Using the default interface 'eth0'.
Resetting the transceiver...
Basic registers of MII PHY #31:  ffff ffff ffff ffff ffff ffff ffff ffff.
  No MII transceiver present!.

Index #1: Found a Intel i82557 (or i82558) EtherExpressPro100B adapter at 0xdcc0
i82557 chip registers at 0xdcc0:
  ffffffff ffffffff ffffffff ffffffff ffffffff ffffffff
  Interrupt sources are pending.
   The transmit unit state is 'Unknown'.
   The receive unit state is 'Broken-15'.
  This status is unusual for an activated interface.
 The Command register has an unprocessed command ffff(?!).

Any Idea ?
