Hi there, I've got a Samsung i7500 which I upgraded to the
GAOSP-2-PUBLIC-BETA-3<http://code.google.com/p/gaosp/downloads/detail?name=GAOSP-2-PUBLIC-BETA-3.zip&can=2&q=>
custom rom.
I've been trying some things out with the ifconfig and iwconfig that comes
compiled with this great ROM and had some puzzling results. First thing I
can't understand is why the interface eth0 seems to dissapear as soon as I
manually turn wifi off. As far as I understand, if I type something like
*ifconfig
-a* in the adb shell I should get a report on every single interface, even
the ones that are down.
Instead, whenever the wifi is off and I type that command on the adb shell,
I'm getting this:

So here comes the other puzzling thought: what in hell are all these
interfaces?! usb0 kinda speaks for itself, but what about ifb0, ifb1 and
sit0 ??
Any insight will be appreciated.
