The old kernel had the drivers built-in, the new kernel uses modules
that need to be loaded. Find out which drivers you need (dmesg using
the old kernel and lspci should tell you), and add their names
to /etc/modules. If you use two different cards with different drivers,
add the driver for the first device (e.g. eth0) first, and the second
driver below the first. That way the names of the interfaces won't be
switched.
