I have a similar problem, but it happens on my wired network card too. When I boot my machine it works correctly. But then when I suspend/resume, the card gets a different MAC address. If I suspend/resume again, it gets back its correct MAC address. It continues to alternate between its correct MAC and a new one.
For example, in 6 resume/suspend cycles I got this result: eth0 00:1B:24:0B:D1:E5 eth3 00:00:6C:BE:14:42 eth0 00:1B:24:0B:D1:E5 eth4 00:00:6C:1C:5E:CC eth0 00:1B:24:0B:D1:E5 eth5 00:00:6C:7C:75:DE eth0 00:1B:24:0B:D1:E5 This is on Gutsy with a custom linux 2.6.22.15 kernel. I'm also using the forcedeth driver, as some others above. 00:14.0 Bridge: nVidia Corporation MCP51 Ethernet Controller (rev a3) I understand how to keep the ethX from changing, but what I really care about is the MAC address. -- Ethernet device's number increases by one after every reboot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/153727 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
