3rd network interface unknown and not found - udev renaming

I have an Arch linux based firewall with 3 wired network interfaces, one on the mobo.
In a thunderstorm one of the pci-based interfaces died.
Upon changing that one to another with the same chipset (realtek 8139) as the one on the mobo, udev hangs a long time on boot and the latter (eth2) becomes unknown and not found.
Looking at the kernel log I find the following before change:
kernel: udev[435]: renamed network interface eth1 to eth1-eth2
kernel: udev[426]: renamed network interface eth2 to eth1
kernel: udev[435]: renamed network interface eth1-eth2 to eth2
And after the change just this:
kernel: udev[426]: renamed network interface eth2 to eth2-eth1
What is going on and how can I avoid this?
Thanks

Could you post the output of sudo lspci -v  ?? I am wondering if the chipsets are conflicting with each other's resources.  They shouldn't, but it sounds like one of them might have been a little traumatized and may be a little brain damaged. (Pardon my anthropomorphisms)

  • Interface IManaged was not found

    Hi, people!
    I am beginner in Flex and my problem may be is not problem
    really.
    I have written a test class for RemoteObject:
    package
    [Managed]
    [RemoteClass(alias="Service+UserClass, App_Code")]
    public final class UserClass
    public var Name: String;
    public var Password: String;
    But Flex Builder said me "Interface IManaged was not found".
    Then I have modified my class a little:
    package
    import mx.data.IManaged;
    import mx.data.utils.Managed;
    [Managed]
    [RemoteClass(alias="Service+UserClass, App_Code")]
    public final class UserClass implements mx.data.IManaged
    public var Name: String;
    public var Password: String;
    But I saw above-mentioned error twice.
    Please help me. I know people had
    the
    same problem, but it remains without reply.

    I have the same problem somebody talk me about to put the class bindable above of IManaged... I d'ont really understand why... In my case, the class is generated by dto2fx so I can't change it to bindable (or I will have to do it at each java class edit).
    If someone, somewhere,  have any idea...

  • HT4759 My "notes" made on phone disappear on charging phone using apple computer and not found on iCloud either...what setting do I need to adjust?

    My "notes" made on phone disappear on charging phone using apple computer and not found on iCloud either...what setting do I need to adjust?

    You got it.
    Notes - if notes are created in icloud notes (you may have multiple notes accounts) - icloud notes and only icloud are synced over all your devices and icloud server, so if you want to see those on the server you can go and manage (edit) on www.icloud.com.
    Since notes synchronize by using same IMAP email server - turning them "ON" will prompt you to create mail address.
    To add to that you do not have 10.8 that has it's own notes app, so your notes go to Notes folder in your icloud/me/mac mail and synched by your mail server.

  • HSRP / interface tracking and not only…

    Hi All,
    HSRP provides nice feature of tracking an “external” interface, while taking decision with regard to active HSRP router election.
    What I would like to ask you is as follows:
    In my network all routing decisions are based on Layer2 protocol (NSAP addresses in ATM). On a top of this, I have pure IP network without any dynamic routing protocol (neither OSPF nor BGP is not supported on ATM boxes). Now I would like to bring ATM interface down for a gateway, which does not work as an active HSRP router.
    As I mentioned before Layer2 takes a decision for traffic a traffic flow. I’m afraid under certain circumstances traffic may hit ATM interface attached the standby router. So what next? Won’t be properly routed via HSRP pair. Is my understanding correct?
    I would like to have activated only one ATM interface running on active HSRP router, on the standby line protocol should be down. When HSRP re-election process takes place, newly activated router becomes active and in the first order changes protocol line to active. Is that possible?
    Just as a last remark, ATM interfaces are monitored (tracked) only. Standby group is configured on Ethernet ports.
    Regards,
    Artur

    Hello Artur,
    HSRP 'tracking' feature is solely to take down the 'HSRP STATUS' to up or down and it has no bearing on the actual line protocol state of the interface.
    So if you desire that HSRP should bring down the ATM interface, then that is not possible. HSRP tracking would only change the 'priority' of that interface and not bring it down/up.
    Let me know if i understood and answered your question correctly,

  • Photoshop CS6 unusable -interface freezes and not enough memory message - on a specific hardware

    I usually speak french but I'll try to be as clear as possible.
    I work as a technician in a school and we're experiencing a major issue with Photoshop CS6.
    We have 3 differents computer's hardware. Photoshop CS6 works fine on 2 of them.
    On the other though, Photoshop CS6 is unusable. With this specific hardware, Photoshop has the same weird behavior on each machine (around 50), so it's not related to an hardware malfunction (like bad ram) I suppose.
    Our problem is this: Once Photoshop is opened and you minimize it in the task bar, as soon as you maximise it to use it again, the interface doesn't respond well at all, the interface is all messed up, some windows are missing and most of the time Photoshop freezes. And after that, whatever we try to do, like selecting whatever option, we have the ''not enough memory'' message. So we can't do nothing with the program after that, from selecting another tool to saving a file.
    Even when no file is opened and we have plenty of RAM that can be used, the problem is there.
    The same problem occurs if we open a window above Photoshop (internet, word, everything). As soon as we go back to work in Photoshop, the interface freezes and windows are missing, and we get the same not enough memory message every time.
    We already tried to change/desactivate each performance settings in Photoshop, we already installed the latest Photoshop CS6 update.
    We've updated BIOS, processor driver, graphic card driver, etc.
    We have this problem with Photoshop CS6 64 bits and 32 bits.
    We dont have this problem with any other program in the CS6 suite.
    We dont have this problem with Photoshop CS5.
    We have the same graphic card and driver on the others computers where Photoshop CS6 works perfectly well.
    What's bugging us is everything else in the production suite works fine!
    Please, do you think of anything else we can try?
    We're hopeless!
    Here is the specific hardware where the problem occur.
    Hardware:
    Dell Inspiron T3500
    Intel XEON e5220 2.27 ghz
    6 GIGS (RAM)
    Quadro FX 1800
    Plenty of available hard-disk.
    VRAM: 768 MB
    OPEN GL: Version 3.3
    Windows 7 Professional SP1

    Yes! There it this (sorry our Photoshop version is in french since we are a french school, I hope it's still useful to you) .
    Please note that it's not with the latest Adobe update available, but we've tried it on an other computer but I can't access it right now. But the adobe update did'nt solve the problem either.

  • Cisco NAS IP is SSID interface IP and not WLC IP

    Hi,
    The radius packets are being dropped on my ISE deployment because the NAS IP is being detected as the SSID IP and not the IP of the WLC. I want the IP of the WLC to be the NAS IP because the WLC is what I've configured as the NAD in the ISE itself.

    I have configured the management interface IP - 192.168.1.1 (from where I access the GUI) as the NAD in ISE.
    The SSID interface IP is 192.168.7.1. Obviously, since this isn't configured as a NAD in ISE, the radius packets sourced from this IP are being dropped.
    I have another SSID with IP 192.168.5.1, but in this case, the NAS IP mentioned in the ISE logs indicate the WLC Management IP which is perfectly fine and this is what should happen.

  • Find / -group network -- no permission / directory not found

    Hi,
    sorry, I unfortunately started the treat in German. Now the English version.
    I'd like to find all files asigned to the group e.g. network.
    I used this command with the following errors.
    # find / -group network
    find: "/home/clementis/.gvfs": no permission
    find: "/proc/1581/task/1581/fd/5": file or directory not found
    find: "/proc/1581/task/1581/fdinfo/5": file or directory not found
    find: "/proc/1581/fd/5": file or directory not found
    find: "/proc/1581/fdinfo/5: file or directory not found
    Does this output simply mean that there are no files with the group "network" or is it an access problem or something else?
    Could please help or give me a hint?
    Thx!

    Solche Fehler sind normal mit den meisten Suchanfragen. Normalerweise ist es sicher, die stderr auf /dev/null schicken.

  • Movie dowloaded and not found on my apple tv on downloads or settings or my  movies, What happened and where is it?

    My apple tv first generation downloaded a movie. The apple tv stopped working and then had to restart apple tv and the movie is now not any where to be found. When go back to top movies it says I have already downloaded the movie and do I want to rent again. What is going on and how can I find the movie?

    Ouch.
    Firstly, try unpowering and restarting AppleTV - this may just be a glitch.
    If that doesn't help go here:

    Navigate to itunes support and raise the issue with them.

  • Sad iPod and not found on computer -tred all relevant articles

    My iPod was working fine until I finally decided to update the software. After i did this, it told me to update my firmware by plugging it in. I did, and then when I unplugged it later on, every song on my iPod was gone. A few days later, I plugged the iPod into my computer and all the songs magically came back on it, even the ones that were not backed up on the computer I plugged it into. It worked fine for a couple of days, but this morning when I tried to play a song, it kept lagging and would struggle, making some clicking sounds (not continuous ones like when a harddrive crashes, just occasional ones like it was having trouble reading), so I reset it. When I started up again, I got the sad iPod icon. I have since tried everything in every relevant support article I could find. I tried the 5 R's, and I also put it into disk mode (which it finally did, after much lagging), but still my computer would not recognize it, even after reinstalling iTunes.
    Basically, what it comes down to, is I cannot restore it, because I cannot get my computer to recognize it. It has always worked fine on this computer -- in fact, I never had a single problem with my iPod until I tried to update the software. I guess I learned, 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it' - but how can I ever get my iPod to work again? Please help me!
    PS: Somehow I accidentally put this topic in the wrong thread at first... I never even clicked on any fourm, so I don't know how it got there, and I cannot figure out how to delete my post either. For an award-winning site, it just doesn't seem very user-friendly to me >.<

    The Sad iPods icon or folder with an exclamation mark are the toughest problems to deal with, and must do a Restore in order to fix it. However, when your iPod is showing this icon, it is probably too late for your computer to recognize the iPod.
    1. Try these five steps (known as the five Rs) and it would conquer most iPod issues.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
    2. Try to put the iPod into Disk Mode if it fails to appear on the desktop
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651
    Still can't see your iPod?
    Several things could keep iPod from appearing in iTunes or in the Desktop/Finder when you connect it to your PC/Mac. The most likely causes are listed below in logical order. Check from the top of the list to see if that is what's keeping iPod from appearing.
    3. Try to wait 30 minutes while iPod is charging.
    4. Try another known-good FireWire or USB through Dock Connector cable.
    5. Try another known-good FireWire or USB port on your computer .
    6. Try to disconnect all devices from your computer's FireWire and USB ports.
    7. Windows users having trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac user. We've found that in many cases when an iPod won't show up on a PC that it will show up on the Mac. Then it can be restored. When the PC user returns to his computer the iPod will be recognized by the PC, reformatted for the PC, and usable again. By the way, it works in reverse too. A Mac user often can get his iPod back by connecting it to a PC and restoring it.
    8. Try to do an Erase (Disk Utility) on a Mac computer or a format with a PC (Disk Management tool) but ensure you choose the right Drive (your iPod not your Hard Disk of your computer). You may need to plug and unplug your iPod with the computer for several attempts, and switching around Format and Restore, and hope out of sudden, it will get recognized.
    9. Diagnostic mode solution – which I copied from a thread of a post from thinktwice
    “Then I cam across this special Diganostics Mode that you can get to by resetting and then while the Apple is showing pressing the Select and backwards keys simultaneously. It bring up and weird Diagnostic utility witha a abunch of tests. Here is what I did
    - I tried the 5in1 test and got and error on Firewire.
    - I did the HDD R/W and surprisingly it passed.
    - I went on to the HDD scan. This supposedly tkaes acouple of minute so I waited. I think 4-5 dots appeared then nothing. The iPod started to get hot. THe disk was spinning away. After a while the battery got very low. THis test chews up the battery. So I escaped out by resetting and went to connect it to a power source.
    My USB was dangling out of my computer and I was too lazy to get the Firewire AC adapter thing going so I connected expecting the whole lockup thing with iTunes. Surprise. IT was recognized immediately and has been working like a champ. So go figure.
    Details on Diag mode can be found at http://www.methodshop.com/mp3/ipodsupport/diagnosticmode/index.shtml
    10.Let me ask you a question, if an iPod with no iPod software with it. When your connect it with a computer, what would happen?
    Yeah, the computer will treat it as a fresh external hard disk, which will get force mounted, the computer will ask you to format the iPod. It does not really matter the format is completed or not, the key is to erase (or partly) the corrupted iPod software on the iPod, after that the computer will recognize it.
    Once it has been completed, eject your iPod, open the iPod updater and interestingly, you will able to do the Restore this time.
    Base on the above, that's why I suggest Windows users who experience trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac machine or vice versa. PC computer will not recognize a Mac formatted iPod, but it will get mounted in an attempt to format your iPod.
    But, if none of these steps address the issue, your iPod may need to be repaired. You can arrange for service at the iPod Service Website.
    I have just read an interesting solution about the Sad iPod, it does make sense but the warranty will be waived once you open the iPod, I would not do it myself as I am not good on doing this

  • HT5312 the request for resetting security question is sent to an email which is unknown and not belonged to me

    I had an apple ID opened by an apple store a year ago. Since then I hadnt purchased any app from app store. Today i was doing it for the first time which I came across two security questions which i hadnt seen so far. I requested a reset but the email the instructions are sent to is one i dont know and doesnt belong to me. I even asked the store about it and they said they either didnt know the email address. Considering that I have my ID and my password, i wish to ask you to kindly unlock my account. I would provide any additional info that might be needed.
    Sincerely Yours
    AMJ

    The reset link will only show if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account. If you aren't getting the reset link then you don't have a rescue email address, and you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions - you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use
