Affects: linux-source-2.6.15 linux-image-2.6.15-15-386 (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
The ethernet card was named eth0 as usual, but after a reboot today, it
becomes eth0_clashed. Still the same module e100 I believe but with that
ugly name and not be able to display the whole string from ifconfig, I
spent quite a long time to figure it out. I am not sure if this change
is in purpose but I would consider it is a bug and want the name be
changed back. I tried 2.6.15-15, 2.6.15-14 and they all the same.
