Using '10' is the correct value.
Please send the output of tulip-diag with that setting.

Also, please try running
  mii-diag eth0 -F 10baseTx-FDX
and report the result.

This will set the to use the "serial" (non-MII) transceiver, which isn't
connected.

Hmmm....

Ahhh, autonegotiation is still enabled.
Please try the following change in tulip.c around line 969

	/* Enable autonegotiation: some boards default to off. */
	mdio_write(dev, phy, 0, (mii_reg0 & ~0x3000) |
			   (tp->full_duplex ? 0x0100 : 0x0000) |
			   ((media_cap[tp->default_port] & MediaIs100) ?
-				0x2000 : 0x1000));
+				0x2000 : 0x0000));
