This causes 70-net-persistent-rules to show ever increasing eth (ie eth1, eth2, eth3, eth4. eth5, etc.). Setting a static address for eth1 becomes impossible due to it's ever changing number. 00:0a.0 Bridge: nVidia Corporation CK804 Ethernet Controller (rev a3) 01:0a.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8001 Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 13) Linux version 2.6.31-20-generic (buildd@palmer) (gcc version 4.4.1 (Ubuntu 4.4.1-4ubuntu8) ) #58-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 12 05:23:09 UTC 2010 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/540877/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
