This probably doesn't help you, but I had the same problem on my T20. 
Did a complete reinstall and it worked (it couldnt get a DHCP lease 
during install, but I could manually configure DHCP for eth0 after 
booting into gnome).

Also, both e100 and proee100 are loaded... when I removed proee100 I 
lost eth0.
