The IRQ for eth0 looks wrong. I had the same problem with my LinkSys
board. At Mark Hahn's suggestion, I diddled with some of the BIOS
settings relating to plug-n-play. I believe turning *off* automatic
configuration of PCI devices by the BIOS fixed my problem.

That may not work for you, though, since eth1 is working OK. Mark also
suggested moving the board to a different slot or possibly upgrading the
BIOS.
