Description Bob Gustafson 2004-10-01 17:09:49 EDT 
Description of problem:

 When I do 'Gnome->System Settings->Network-><tab>Hardware', I see 4
lines.

  Intel Corp. 82545EM Gigabit Ethernet Controller (Copper)
  Intel Corp. 82545EM Gigabit Ethernet Controller
  Intel EtherExpress 1000/gigabit
  Intel EtherExpress 1000/gigabit

I actually only have two - one is on the motherboard and the other is
a PCI card.

Other than being a bit strange, it does not seem to affect the
operation of my system.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

  system-config-network 1.3.20

How reproducible:

  I have seen mention of eth2 and eth3 in the console log during boot.
  This has been there for a couple of weeks or so.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. as above
2.
3.
  
Actual results:

  as above

Expected results:

  Two hardware listings.

Additional info:

  The devices tab also shows 4 devices.

  'Gnome->System Tools->Hardware Browser-<select>Network devices' 
shows only two hardware devices (the top two lines above)
Comment 1 Harald Hoyer 2004-10-04 04:17:38 EDT 
Maybe there are only configured, but not present. What does the 4th
column say?
Comment 2 Bob Gustafson 2004-10-04 12:23:19 EDT 
The 4th column says 'configured' for the phantom devices.

I didn't configure them (did I?).

device    status

eth0      ok
eth1      ok
eth2      configured
eht3      configured
Comment 3 Harald Hoyer 2004-10-05 04:35:33 EDT 
please attach your /etc/modules.conf
reassigning to kudzu, which has configured your cards.
Comment 4 Bob Gustafson 2004-10-05 13:27:16 EDT 
Hmm, no /etc/modules.conf on my active system

 [root@hoho2 aplus-fsf-4.20]# find /etc -name modules.conf\* -print

If I widen the 'find', I see stuff from an old RH9 system on an
unmounted disk (??)

[root@hoho2 aplus-fsf-4.20]# find / -name modules.conf\* -print
/media/scsidisk2/etc/modules.conf
/media/scsidisk2/etc/modules.conf~
/media/scsidisk2/etc/modules.conf.nv

/usr/share/man/ja/man5/modules.conf.5.gz
/usr/share/man/fr/man5/modules.conf.5.gz
[root@hoho2 aplus-fsf-4.20]#

Will /etc/modprobe.conf do?

[root@hoho2 aplus-fsf-4.20]# ls -l /etc/modprobe*

Comment 12 Bill Nottingham 2004-10-06 17:03:46 EDT 
Presumably if you remove the eth2 and eth3 aliases, everything behaves?
Comment 13 Bob Gustafson 2004-10-08 15:09:16 EDT 
Presumably.

However, I did not put the eth2 and eth3 aliases in there. The devil
that stuck them in - could come back.

I will whack them and see what happens..
Comment 14 Bob Gustafson 2004-10-08 15:30:53 EDT 
Ok.

I whacked the aliases for eth2 and eth3 from /etc/modprobe.conf and
then rebooted. The 'Gnome->System Settings->Network-><tab>Hardware'
shows only the real eth0 and eth1. However, the 'Gnome->System
Settings->Network-><tab>Devices' still shows the phantom eth2 and 3.

I then whacked the files /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth2
and ifcfg-eth3 and then rebooted.

The 'Gnome->System Settings->Network' displayed data is now correct.

Works for me (thanks)
