What's /etc/interfaces?

Do you mean /etc/network/interfaces? A copy of that file, plus
the output of:
$ grep 8139 /boot/config-2.4.XX
and:
$ /sbin/ifconfig

Or just do a quick check:

ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.10 up
ping 192.168.1.1

or whatever you need to. The kernel saw it but now you need to
configure it.

I found that my on-board 8139-C failed to receive packets if ACPI was
compiled into the kernel; it might be worthwhile trying it without ACPI
support if it's enabled, or tinkering with your in-kernel power management
options.
