Description Michal Ingeli 2008-03-13 11:44:16 UTC
Description of problem:

After every resume, direction of chars in mac address is toggled. So interface
name is changing from ethX to ethY and back after next resume. I also need to
reload module after resume.

Device:
00:08.0 Bridge: nVidia Corporation MCP55 Ethernet (rev a2)

ifconfig:
eth2      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 50:A0:BB:17:16:00  
and
eth1      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:16:17:bb:a0:50  

/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules:

# nVidia Corporation MCP55 Ethernet
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*",
ATTR{address}=="00:16:17:bb:a0:50", ATTR{type}=="1", NAME="eth1"
# PCI device 0x10de:0x0373 (forcedeth)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*",
ATTR{address}=="50:a0:bb:17:16:00", ATTR{type}=="1", NAME="eth2"
