What did you change? Look in /var/log/messages - and perhaps
/var/log/boot.msg. When the system booted, the mouse was using
some IRQ, and the Ethernet was using something else. You changed
_something_ and now the IRQs are not the same. I don't know why,
as I don't know what you did. Look also at the output of the
commands /sbin/ifconfig -a (which should show what IRQ the NIC is
using) and 'cat /proc/interrupts'
