Now this is really getting out of control! route desktop: This is what I had in the beginning: Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.1.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 usb0 192.168.0.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo default 192.168.0.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 Then I changed usb0 to 192.168.0.10 and I had Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.0.10 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 usb0 192.168.0.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo default 192.168.0.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 I switched off the pda, later switched it on again and -boom- my eth0 was gone! I had Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.0.10 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 usb0 192.168.0.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 usb0 127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo default 192.168.0.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 usb0 WTF! Now I have switched off the pda, usb0 is gone and I was left with lo as single network device! I did a 'service network status' and it listed eth0 as active. I did a 'service network stop' and then started it again and there was eth0 again. I switched on the pda and eth0 was gone and usb0 took it's place. wobo -- Public GnuPG key available at http://www.wolf-b.de/misc
