Yep that's my case !
My dapper /etc/network/interfaces is configured properly for DHCP (and
the same as my actual Breezy), and Ive even tried to fix an IP address
as you advised us to. But that's useless. It cannot connect to the local
network while my breezy does. In dapper, eth0 is detected OK but it's
very slow to inizialize (from network-admin) and doesn't work.
log message is (dmesg) in dapper :
[4295357.469000] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready
[4295360.471000] 0000:00:11.0: tulip_stop_rxtx() failed (CSR5 0xfc740000
CSR6 0x2042202)
