I'm experiencing a similar problem after dist-upgrade from Feisty to Hardy: I
have two built-in network interfaces: eth0 looks into internet and eth1 is used
for the home LAN (to go out to the internet via NAT). The problem is that eth1
won't start up on a 2.6.24 kernel. At the same time I have no problems with it
on a 2.6.22 kernel.
Here is my info (fetched when 2.6.24 is loaded):
Output for lspci -v (fragment about ethernet controllers only):

Output of ifup eth1:

Failed to bring up eth1.
In the 'dmesg | grep eth1' output I see this

By the way, here is the contents of my /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-
net.rules file:
# This file maintains persistent names for network interfaces.
# See udev(7) for syntax.
#
# Entries are automatically added by the 75-persistent-net-generator.rules
# file; however you are also free to add your own entries.
# Converted from /etc/iftab on upgrade
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="00:17:31:94:0d:c5",
ATTRS{type}=="1", NAME="eth0"
# Converted from /etc/iftab on upgrade
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="00:00:00:00:00:00",
ATTRS{type}=="1", NAME="eth1"
# USB device 0x03f0:0x1c1d (rndis_host)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="80:00:60:0f:e8:00",
ATTR{type}=="1", NAME="eth2"
So, the problem that eth1 just won't start with a 2.6.24 kernel. No
solution found yet :(
