Both (er, all if you happen to have more than 2) interfaces will need
to be listed there for it to be effective.  The problem is that if
some device comes up without a rule and grabs eth0, then udev won't
take eth0 away from it when a device with a matching rule comes up.

So if one is missing, remove/rename the file as Iain suggested and
re-run the script.

Well the other old standby advice is to remove/rename ~/.gnome, so you
end up with the default gnome settings again, and see if that helps.
