Not positive what the rule would be, but the place I'd try would be /etc/udev/rules.d, which governs uDev, the device files system (/dev) manager. So, now that you've a tip, you can google that. -Josh <div>On 2/12/07, John Shane <<a href="mailto:jslists@mtwafrica.org">jslists@mtwafrica.org</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> I just installed XU Edgy on my ThinkPad T23; a clean install instead of trying to upgrade the existing XU Dapper. Gave me a chance to do several things I've wanted to do, like tweak partitions and so on, but I have to say that XU just keeps growing from strength to strength. XU Edgy is great stuff. Anyway, as always, there are some issues to sort out and one of them is how to force XU to assign the wireless card to eth1 instead of sometimes assigning it to eth0. So far I haven't found anything through googling, at least not that answers this specific issue. I've tried to edit /etc/network/interfaces but that doesn't govern which interface is assigned to which piece of hardware. I've looked in the udev rules but if the answer is there I haven't found it. If possible I'd like eth1 to always be the wireless card and eth0 to always be the built in NIC. Can anyone point me to an explanation of how to do this? Many thanks.
