Gave this a try. Kudzu did unconfigure and the reconfigure the
controller. Then, when it tries to bring it up, the following message is
displayed (also in /var/log/messages):

Oct  2 23:54:13 spike ifup: sis900 device does not seem to be present,
delaying
eth1 initialization.
Oct  2 23:54:13 spike network: Bringing up interface eth1:  failed

I think there's something wrong either with the driver or it's just not
compatible for some reason. I really don't know...

Cheers,

    What if you disabled the ethernet device in your BIOS, boot up linux and let
    it detect it's missing.  Make sure kudzu is able to run at boot.  Then
    reboot back into your BIOS, enable it again and let kudzu detect it and see
    if it finds it and sets it up correctly.
