Has anyone seen this before? It's very odd...
I haven't seen that particular issue, but you can assign device names to a specific MAC in Yast Network Settings. - I might have to do that; I've just never seen this happen before on my laptop in the year and a half I've had it now, so it's really odd to me that it would start doing something like that now. I know the newer versions of oS have moved to a consistent naming scheme (rather than the old like eth0 style,) but wasn't sure if this had maybe gotten back-ported to 12.3 now? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
