On 10.0, all network setup is "classic".

For what it's worth, i've got very similar results on my initial
installs of SUSE 10 on a Dell PE850.  If i add the IP address to xenbr0,
it works, but not if the same IP is on eth0 (which is a member of the
bridge).

If you work out the answer, please post it here!  :-)
