But under the hardware tab they are associated incorrectly/differently and also when you edit a higlighted device in the devices tab and then look at hardware they are again associated incorrectly/differently. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.3.30-2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: see description Actual Results: Harware tab shows the following :- Intel Corporation 82557/8/9 [Ethernet Pro 100] as eth1 Intel Corporation 8254OEM Gigabit Ethernet Controller as eth0 Expected Results: As attributed in the network scripts Intel Corporation 82557/8/9 [Ethernet Pro 100] as eth0 Intel Corporation 8254OEM Gigabit Ethernet Controller as eth1 Additional info: These two devices are situated on the Intel SE7505VB2 motherboard and the only one currently in use (connected to anything) is the 82557/8/9 [Ethernet Pro 100]
Problem now resolved after doing all updates but I don't know which update fixed this problem as the system-config-network has not been updated. I will keep a eye on things to see if anything changes before closing this bug.
I think it all sorted itself out when I used system-config-network to disable my unused network interface at startup (Intel Corporation 8254OEM Gigabit Ethernet Controller) so i will now close this bug report as NOTABUG.
