eth0_rename
When I load my wireless driver, be it ndiswrapper or bcm43xxx, the
interface comes up as eth0_rename or wlan0_rename, and I see this in
dmesg:
wlan0: ethernet device 00:14:a5:2a:04:28 using NDIS driver: bcmwl5,
version: 0x40a2801, NDIS version: 0x501, vendor: '', 14E4:4318.5.conf
wlan0: encryption modes supported: WEP; TKIP with WPA, WPA2, WPA2PSK;
AES/CCMP with WPA, WPA2, WPA2PSK
ndiswrapper: changing interface name from 'wlan0' to 'wlan0_rename'
usbcore: registered new interface driver ndiswrapper
Anybody know why? It's not too much of a problem, the interface still
works, it just looks out of place.
Thanks
Hans
