Damn. This just took me 8 hours. My system is a supermicro H8DGU-F which uses an Intel 82576 Gigabit NIC.
In my case there are two problems. - Firstly, the igb network driver supplied by the xen kernel (2.6.32-5-xen-amd64) isn't up-to-date. So I compiled it from source http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Default.aspx?lang=eng - Secondly, the driver isn't inserted (in time) during boot, so I followed Andy Whitcroft's advise by putting the module (igb) into /etc/modules. This did the trick.. Funny thing is. You would expect this behaviour also in the NON xen kernel (2.6.32-5-amd64) but this isn't true. Which makes me believe some drivers from xen kernel differ from regular kernel drivers. I wonder why? Hope this helps..
