Description Stefan Assmann 2013-07-26 10:09:45 UTC
Description of problem:
The wired ethernet NIC e1000e on Lenovo T500 laptops is named enp0s25 instead of something useful. I assume it should be em1, right?

Hi,

The names enp0s25 and wlp3s0 reffer to systemd's Predictable Network Interface Names (http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/PredictableNetworkInterfaceNames/), so biosdevname is not use at all in this case and they are perfectly ok wrt. mentioned feature. -> Closing as NOTABUG.
