[Bridge] When I add br0 (brctl addbr br0), and I show bridge list (brctl show) it's eth0 which is in the list. It's a bug ?

All is in subject.

Example :

root@harobed:~ # brctl show
bridge name     bridge id               STP enabled     interfaces
root@harobed:~ # ifconfig
lo        Lien encap:Boucle locale
           inet adr:127.0.0.1  Masque:255.0.0.0
           adr inet6: ::1/128 Scope:Hôte
           UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:16436  Metric:1
           RX packets:16510 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
           TX packets:16510 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0

           RX bytes:5107285 (4.8 MiB)  TX bytes:5107285 (4.8 MiB)

root@harobed:~ # brctl addbr br0
root@harobed:~ # brctl show
bridge name     bridge id               STP enabled     interfaces
eth1            8000.000000000000       no               can't get port 
info: Function not implemented
root@harobed:~ #

Supplementary informations :
* eth0 is Ethernet card
* eth1 is wireless card enabled (with On/off laptop button)

Thanks for your help.

What is the hardware address of your eth0?
It looks like it is 00:00:00:00:00:00 which implies a hardware
problem?

Look at 'ifconfig eth0' output
