If you fix your hub-side at 10fdx and leave your NIC-side at auto-negotiate, you're going to run into problems because the auto-negotiate side is going to fall back to 10hdx because your hub-side wasn't negotiating.

Unless your OS allows you to fix your NIC-side at 10fdx (Linux does), you won't be able to do what you want to do.
If a problem can be fixed, there's nothing to worry. If a problem can't be fixed, worrying ain't gonna help. Bottom line: don't worry.
