With the new way of device creation and module loading (udev, discover etc) my ethernet modules (3c59x,8139too) are loaded in different order with kernels 2.6.12 and 2.6.14. For 2.6.14 3c59x is loaded first corresponding to eth0 and then 8139too corresponding to eth1. With kernel 2.6.12 they are loaded in reverse order, giving the wrong names on my interfaces, and the interfaces defined in /etc/network/interfaces becomes wrong. How to bind modules to eth interface numbers? Any hints on which of the /etc/modules, /etc/modules.conf etc should be used, and which are obsolete? Thanks,
there's a way to deal with this in the debian documentation (but I don't have it with me right now). Here's what I do in my laptop for wired and wireless interface: http://www.lorenzobettini.it/linux/LinuxSonyVaioVGN-S5VP_B hope this helps Lorenzo -- +-----------------------------------------------------+ | Lorenzo Bettini ICQ# lbetto, 16080134 | | PhD in Computer Science | | Dip.
