Please don't assign this back without comments. As stated, this does not look like an udev issue, but a wrongly converted config file from an earlier distribution. It is either Yast or sysconfig, which needs to handle this. Thanks. Sorry for my fault. Thanks.

Yast Installation Process lets you configure NM in Yast
YaST2 basically creates sysconfig/netcontrol ifcfg-ethX files during the installation and NM provides a script, that is able to make an _initial_ _import_ of configurations for physical interfaces.
but after no changes can be made for obvious reasons. ALL other KDE Network Management tools are useless as they do not see the interface. No VPN no nothing and the user is helpless to edit. Just revert things back to 11.0 when this DID work until we remove NM from Yast in 11.1-11.2 - what a functional disaster
We have two network stacks. Both provide different functionality. Use the NetworkManager configuration wizard and an nm plugins to configure NM related things. We will not revert anything, because NM and netcontrol (alias ifup provided in sysconfig package) conflict with each other. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

It might be of additional help if the update should performs something like
sed -i -e 's#ATTRS{address}==#ATTR{address}==#g' \ /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
to the file in question.
I'm not sure if the file is named the same way on all products.
Well, the above is not sufficient. To not to break more than already happened, it would be required to write a script that evaluates at least all ifcfg files, collects the (MAC matches by default) and creates/corrects the rule properly. The chance to break it is quite high. Workarounds are: a) correct with vi, b) correct in yast2 network, c) remove the rule file and reboot. the generator creates them again, chance that same rules gets created is quite high. When not, b). (In reply to comment #39)
Hi Marius,
thanks for the update. As I understand in our call this bug is not really fixed/not completely fixed.
The typo in the conversion scripts are fixed. What is not fixed is the rule file that has been converted by the buggy script. Basically, the (fixed) conversion problem occurs only, when there is an active 30-net_persistent_names.rules file as on a <= 10.2 system, that should not be there (already converted and disabled by all the earlier sysconfig RPM installations) on all systems since 10.3. I've no idea where this file were from on your 11.1 system - I think, it has been restored from backup or something like this. I do not think, I have to fix more here than I already did. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Karl, please add a section regarding /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and changed NIC device names to the release notes of 11.2 and the upcoming openSUSE version.
The conversion script is fixed via update as well as in openSUSE:Factory: Fri Dec 4 11:28:20 CET 2009 - mt@suse.de [...] - Fixed typo in convert_persistent_name_rules script causing to generate persistent name rules on update, not matching MAC address (bnc#546575). so it can't happen in any upcoming openSUSE version and IMO no release note is needed for any upcoming version. I'll also drop this and all the another obsolete update scripts in the next cleanup. When such problem happens again, then because of an another reason/bug. ==>> To avoid this problem at all, add the update repository as additional installation source during the installation. That is, when updating 11.1 to 11.2, add 11.2 updates repository. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

if someone doesn't have the update repo, he's unlikely to see updated release notes. The update repo is added automatically unless something is broken.
Ok, thanks, This means the issue is resolved by now. Setting to worksforme. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
