Hi,

	I posted this problem on other more general newsgroups, but didn't get a reply, I thought maybe someone would be of help here.

I'm using Tao Linux on my 3 linux servers and this problem only shows on that one.  I have another one with 2 nics and it is ok.

Here is the problem:

I have one onboard 3com 920 and a pci 3com 905 network card.  Recently, the pci card stopped working, and I found out that the device name wasn't eth1 anymore, it was something like dev14848.  I tried re-detecting it with kudzu and it gave another dev*****.  The other card works perfectly on eth0.

Anyone got an idea where it gets this device name from? 

Thanks,
