Package: madwifi-tools
Version: 1:0.9.2+dfsg-1
Severity: normal

Hello,

I'm not sure if that's a problem with madwifi-tools or the kernel
driver. FWIW, I using version 0.9.2+r1842.20061207-2 of the kernel
driver.

root@cepheus:~# ifconfig -a | grep ath
root@cepheus:~# wlanconfig ath1 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode sta
ath1
root@cepheus:~# ifconfig -a | grep ath
ath0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:11:xx:xx:xx:xx

So ath0 is created instead of ath1. This happens to jumble ifupdown.

Best regards
Uwe

I think this may be udev rules, check:

/etc/udev/rules.d/z25_persistent-net.rules

for rules with athX.

Thanks, Kel

Currently I have:

# PCI device 0x168c:0x0013 (ath_pci)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="00:11:95:bb:42:d6", ATTRS{type}=="1", NAME="ath0"

# PCI device 0x168c:0x0013 (ath_pci)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="06:11:95:bb:42:d6", ATTRS{type}=="1", NAME="ath1"

# PCI device 0x168c:0x0013 (ath_pci)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="0a:11:95:bb:42:d6", ATTRS{type}=="1", NAME="ath2"

# PCI device 0x168c:0x0013 (ath_pci)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="00:04:0e:c4:82:3b", ATTRS{type}=="1", NAME="ath3"

But I cannot do further tests now, because I currently access the
machine via this device. For now I cannot even say if these lines where
already there when I reported the bug.

If your guess is right, do you have a suggestion how to fix the problem?
Is it an udev bug?

I will look into this issue later when I have physical access to the
machine again. Thanks for now.

Uwe

OK, finally I found the time to look into this issue again, sorry that
it took so long.

udevmonitor reports:

UEVENT[1195591531.029634] add@/class/net/ath1
UDEV [1195591531.030523] add@/class/net/ath0

That is your guess that udev is involved is correct.

Best regards
Uwe
