Well, the file /etc/udev/rules.d/z25_persistent-net.rules is the following:


# Firewire device 00030d53255c8616 (ohci1394)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="00:03:0d:53:25:5c:86:16", NAME="eth0"

# PCI device 0x1039:0x0900 (sis900)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="00:03:0d:33:02:17", NAME="eth1


, so eth0 has always been a firewire device.  But the device I'm using as an
ethernet port is eth1, which now is not detected by the command ifconfig, nor
dmesg, nor lspci.
