It seems to be a driver module issue (too). Did you search google for
hints? Dependent on what you can google choosing FC2 which comes out in
a few hours could be a valid choice (it has kernel 2.6.x and newer
drivers on board).

Aliased device usage like eth0:0 will be no solution path, as you can
not assign a total different network to an aliased device.
