Perfect, thanks! This worked in an older release, I suppose udev's
gotten smarter. I'll update the rule accordingly.

Thanks for your patience/help!

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: linux-firmware
  
  Upon upgrade of a server running karmic from linux-image-2.6.31-18-generic-pae  to linux-image-2.6.31-20-generic-pae, network connectivity was lost. dmesg reports:
  [   77.481635] e100 0000:00:07.0: firmware: requesting e100/d101m_ucode.bin
  [  137.473940] e100: eth0: e100_request_firmware: Failed to load firmware "e100/d101m_ucode.bin": -2
  
  Googling around showed that the firmware may be missing, or not in the
  correct location, however it is available in:
  
  /lib/firmware/e100/d102e_ucode.bin
  /lib/firmware/e100/d101s_ucode.bin
  /lib/firmware/e100/d101m_ucode.bin
  /lib/firmware/2.6.31-18-generic-pae/e100/d102e_ucode.bin
  /lib/firmware/2.6.31-18-generic-pae/e100/d101s_ucode.bin
  /lib/firmware/2.6.31-18-generic-pae/e100/d101m_ucode.bin
  /lib/firmware/2.6.31-20-generic-pae/e100/d102e_ucode.bin
  /lib/firmware/2.6.31-20-generic-pae/e100/d101s_ucode.bin
  /lib/firmware/2.6.31-20-generic-pae/e100/d101m_ucode.bin
  
  downgrading to 2.6.31-18 or earlier did not resolve the problem. As a
  workaround, I added another network card and reassigned the static ip to
  the new network card.
