The device alias was called "wlan0". (Its an usb WLAN dongle.) With 2.6.18-rc1 there is a driver "zd1211rw" included in the kernel sources, coming from the same people (AFAICT). But now the device alias is supposed to be called "eth?". Of course iwconfig still shows a "wlan0" device, and fails to configure the new driver :-(. How comes? Does udev somehow "remember" the old "wlan0" and refuses to provide "eth2"? What would be your recommendation? Many thanx Harri --------------enig4D5C589BB14B05E5C85D73CC Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFEs9t7UTlbRTxpHjcRAoXcAJ9LzBWCycLIH0ybV5VdaWTgAbo4uwCZASej IqUreJnuWmGDaYGLfDidQ/k= =p/io -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig4D5C589BB14B05E5C85D73CC-- --===============2056353481== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
