I am not completely sure but it could be that your laptop includes
a kind of 8102 ethernet chipset which needs a post 2.6.27 kernel.

Can you try current 2.6.27 git kernel + the patches at:

http://userweb.kernel.org/~romieu/r8169/2.6.27-git8/20081020

A dmesg of the patched kernel will be welcome.
