I have an ethernet controller that worked until I updated my udev to
the latest version.

00:14.0 Bridge: nVidia Corporation MCP51 Ethernet Controller (rev a1)
Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. Unknown device 8141
Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop-
ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B-
Status: Cap+ 66MHz+ UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=fast >TAbort-
<TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR-
Latency: 0 (250ns min, 5000ns max)
Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 16
Region 0: Memory at febd7000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
Region 1: I/O ports at d080 [size=8]

PME(D0+,D1+,D2+,D3hot+,D3cold+)

It shows up as follows from ifconfig

I have kernel 2.6.18-r4 from gentoo-sources

I don't understand what is happening. It sets my IP just fine, but
the MAC address is WEIRD and there's no link. The link light is on.
I can ping my IP, but my gateway IP returns with destination host
unreachable.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
