running kubuntu dapper flight livecd3, networking is disabled (no eth0 interface) on my computer too.
i have an asus a7n8x deluxe motherboard (nforce2 based) with both nforce and realtek ethernet adapters onboard. pc is connected to a router/dhcp server via the nforce ethernet port. networking works out of the box in breezy.

there is a workaround though!
i can go into the kde system settings > networking > admin mode and enable the two ethernet adapters (they're actually recognized but disabled by default!). then i can run sudo ifup eth0 from a terminal to get an ip from my dhcp server and everything works.
