From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 Galeon/1.0.2 (X11; Linux i686; U;) Gecko/20020117 Description of problem: In /etc/sysconfig/apm-scripts/apmscript network is after PCMCIA. This causes net.agent (hotplug) to start network interface if a PCMCIA network card exists, and the first unused interface (eth0) would be grabbed. If in the normal usage the PCMCIA network card is configured as interface other than eth0 (e.g., eth1), this will cause the wrong interface configuration being used. Also I suspect that this ordering would cause various interface scripts to be executed more than one time? (e.g. /sbin/ifup-local if one exists) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. set both NET_RESTART and PCMCIARESTART to yes in /etc/sysconfig/apmd. 2. create a user-supplied /sbin/ifup*-local or /sbin/ifdown*-local scripts. 3. have a PCMCIA network card installed as eth1 and inserted. 4. suspend the machine and resume it. Actual Results: eth1 is never up. Expected Results: eth1 should be up okay (and if other interfaces are up at the time of suspend they should be up too). Additional info:
well step 2 strictly is not required to reproduce the wrong-interface problem.
Fixed in 3.0.2-6
