Second try: dev->validate_addr()?!
Dan, you don't have HW (MAC) address set on your card, and it's
verified since 2.6.23.
Check if it can be done in BIOS (if it's onboard card) or in some
Fedora config tool or file. To verify this idea try again in 2.6.24.3
something like this:
ifconfig eth0 hw ether 00:00:00:00:00:01
ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.108

Jarek P.
