Sort of the same here, except that I use lan0 instead of eth0, because |
| 27 |
once in a while I use broadcom's wireless drivers instead of the kernel |
| 28 |
drivers, and the former assign an ethX name. |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
Sadly, I still get some problems after resuming from hibernation: |
| 31 |
*sometimes*, the ethernet NIC won't be renamed lan0 (and remains eth0), |
| 32 |
and I have to rmmod and modprobe. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
Also sadly, the fact that several people go "oh noes you can't use |
| 35 |
wlan0" when I try to get comments on how to fix the issue does not |
| 36 |
help a lot... |
