Howdy all

I have what is hopefully two quick questions.

I have just purchased a new latop, Dell Inspiron 6400. As this is the first time I have tried
to install any Linux on a laptop I am uncertain of some things.

1. Everytime I start the machine and go into SourceMage it keeps changing the network card descriptor , ie eth0 to eth1
2. Is anyone looking at ipw3945 as a spell? (just curious)

It doesn't seem to matter if I change name to eth1 as next login it seems to want it to be eth0.

Craig


Oh, almost forgot, card is a Broadcom and uses module b44.
