It should be some CentOS configuration issue as e1000 is working fine
for me in two machines: Debian Etch, Xen 3.0/kernel 2.6.16 and Debian
Etch, Xen 3.0/kernel 2.6.18. What should be noted with the bridged setup
in Debian you don't try to activate the interfaces at all, just the
bridges you've configured on them.

Good Luck!
