Hi,
I had ethernet (eth0) and wireless (wlan0) working well before I run an emerge world (which updated baselayout)
At that time I also had eth1, which I don't know why, and the normal lo.
After the emerge, my wlan0 was gone. I still have the init script (not
sure if is a new one, or was overwritten), that gives the following
errors:
# /etc/init.d/net.wlan0 start
SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
wlan0: unknown interface: No such device
SIOCSIFBRDADDR: No such device
wlan0: unknown interface: No such device
SIOCSIFNETMASK: No such device
The ifconfig command presents this:
# ifconfig -a

Now I have a new sit0... again, no idea why!!
So what I would need is to know how to get back wlan0 and get rid of eth1 and wlan0.
Sorry for presenting so simple problem...
thanks in advance
Fernando.
