I'm not going to get technical on this because it is over my head. |

Basically, udev picked up that something changed so it renamed the |
| 30 |
device. I suspect it is a built in port on the mobo. You can delete |
| 31 |
the udev rule and restart udev and it should see it as the ONLY device. |

The reason I know this, I have three ethernet cards on my rig. I |
| 34 |
replaced one of them and it was a mess. They were laid out as 2, 3 then |
| 35 |
1 and it took me a while to figure out which is which. I deleted the |
| 36 |
rules file and restarted udev and the first one was 1 and so on. |

Hope that helps. |
