And finally, one more datapoint in case it matters:

/proc/cpuinfo shows us the following:
processor       : 0
vendor_id       : AuthenticAMD
cpu family      : 15
model           : 33

And that is all. Just the one cpu. Even though it is a dual core system. The kernel's .config contains:

CONFIG_SMP=y

so I would think it should detect two cpu's. The motherboard is a Tyan S2882-D Thunder K8SD Pro. It has an Intel eepro100 ethernet adaptor and two Broadcom Tigon3 gig-e ethernet adaptors. I currently only have an ethernet cable plugged into the eepro100 (uses the e100 driver) and it is eth0. Just in case that has some bearing on the bridge/network situation.
