[half-SOLVED] eth0 and eth1 getting swapped every time

Hi,
The title says it all, but I don't know what else to do.
I've tried putting the modules in order in the MODULES array in /etc/rc.conf, but it doesn't work. Apparently, the modules in MODULES aren't guaranteed to load in the order they are anymore.
I've tried following this wiki page, about Udev, but it didn't work, too.
I also tried closing my eyes and pretending it doesn't happen, but it didn't work too.
TIA

This is what I did, to me its the easiest solution...
Yeah, except it doesn't work here.

Quickest and cleanest way, IMHO.
It's half working. I've edited /etc/iftab and I've put 'ifrename' in /etc/rc.local . My wired connection does get renamed, but my wireless doesn't. It gives me an error saying that eth1 is busy, which doesn't make sense as I load wicd only after ifrename.
I think now I have a predictable behaviour: wired is always 'wired' and wireless is always 'eth1', so I'll keep it. It wasn't exactly what I wanted, but it's better than completely random.
As hw-tph's solution is the one that suckless™, I'll stay with it. Thanks to all of you that tried to help.

    Good day Sidharth Namrta,
    It sounds like you are unable to make any calls, but you can recieve them, and everything else seems to work fine. I recommend you use the troubleshooting in the following article to help you get that resolved, named:
    iPhone: Troubleshooting issues making or receiving calls
    Follow the steps below to resolve this issue. Please test after each step.
    Toggle airplane mode: Tap Settings > Enable Airplane Mode, wait five seconds, then turn off airplane mode.
    Check your phone settings:
    Check your Do Not Disturb settings: Tap Settings > Do Not Disturb.
    Check for any blocked phone numbers: Tap Settings > Phone > Blocked.
    See if Call Forwarding is turned on: Tap Settings > Phone > Call Forwarding.
    Ensure that your software is up to date:
    Check for a carrier settings update.
    Check for an iOS software update. 
    Note: Some updates may require a Wi-Fi connection.
    If the iPhone has a SIM card, reseat the SIM card.
    If the iPhone 4 or iPhone 4s is on the Verizon network, dial *228 from the iPhone and select option 2 to update the Preferred Roaming List (PRL). The PRL determines the cellular towers the phone uses for cellular service, selecting those with the best signal strength.
    Reset the network settings: Tap  Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Try to make or receive calls in another location.
    Attempt to isolate to one network band:
    If you're having the issue on LTE, disable LTE, if possible, and try again.
    If you're having the issue on 3G/4G, disable 3G/4G, if possible, and try again.
    Contact the carrier to check the following:
    Your account is properly configured to use the specific iPhone that has the issue.
    There are no localized service outages.
    Your account doesn't have a billing-related block.
    Your calls don't have errors on the carrier system.
    Restore the phone as new.
    If the above steps don't resolve the issue, go to an Apple Retail Store, carrier, Apple Authorized Reseller, or contact AppleCare to send the phone in for service.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

    i knew my password ID put i forgot my security question and its ask me every time about it

    Follow the instructions on the page that you posted from, they should let you reset them i.e. if you have a rescue email address set up on your account then steps 1 to 5 half-way down that page should let you reset them.
    If you don't have a rescue email address then 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 (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

  • I have Adobe Photoshop CS2 and it closes down every time I open it.

    I have Adobe Photoshop CS2 and it closes down every time I open it with the following error: "Photoshop Quit Unexpectedly". Is there anything I can do to troubleshoot this?

    The first question is have you used this version on this computer with the operating system you have now. The issue might be (if you are on a Mac) that CS2 was a Power PC application and you have upgraded to a new computer with an Intel processor. CS2 will not work on an Intel processor with system (I think) OSX.6 or greater.
    If you have used this release on this computer with the same OS, than try deleting the preferences by holding down the Comand/Control-Option-Shift keys when starting the application. You will get a message asking if you want to delete the preferences, say yes.
    Let me know if any of these work.

  • ITunes Library.itl gets corrupted every time I restart my CISCO VPN enabled laptop.

    Hi,
    iTunes Library.itl file gets corrupted everytime I restart my laptop.
    I am using Lenovo T410 with Windows 7.
    This is causing alot of problems as all my iPhone songs and apps get deleted after every sync.
    Please help.

    I have the same problem.
    I have removed and re-installed iTunes. The music files are still intact but the library gets erased every time I restart the PC.
    This means I have re-scan all my music files over and over again.
    Also, an inspection of the iTunes directory reveals lots and lots of temp (iT*.tmp) files, all of them are about the same size as the iTunes library database (10mb in my case) so it looks like iTunes is not closing down correctly / writing the temp file back to the iTunes library (iTunes Library.itl)file.
    Can anybody help?

  • Javascript variable getting intialized every time in IE

    Hello
    I have a javascript variable that is decalred outside the functions in a script so that I can access/modify it from more than one functions. I am facing an issue when it comes to IE with such a declaration. The value of the variable that is declared is getting initialized every time when the function is called. This is not happening in Mozilla Firefox. The sample code is as given below.
    <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
    var errMSNo='';
    function alpha_Validate(relatedMS,msNo)
    errMSNo=errMSNo+'MS'+msNo;
    function errorAlert()
    if (errMSNo=='')
         doSubmit('DRAFT');
    else
         alert ('Error ' +errMSNo);
    </script>
    Here even after calling the 'alpha_Validate', IE perfoms the doSubmit operation. Can any one help, please.
    Thanks

  • Anyone else having issues with third party changers saying "this accessory not supported". I get it every time I plug my phone. It only started after the iOS 7 updates

    Anyone else having issues with third party changers saying "this accessory not supported". I get it every time I plug my phone. It only started after the iOS 7 update?

    That's because part of iOS7 had code in it to look for and recognize unsigned cables.
    In other words, Apple knew that people used non-signed ones and didn't care....until last month when they decided to care. People with iOS6 and lower should experience no issues (unless Apple patches those iOS versions) but folks with iOS7 will need to deal with it.

    When you do get it downloaded, before you do anything else, save the Lion installer - make a copy and put it somewhere safe. you can then reuse, make a clean install and other things.

  • Do we get charged every time we have to update our apple app games

    Do we get charged every time we have to update our apple app games?

    Updates never have an additional charge associated with them. App Upgrades do. An upgrade would be going from a free version to the full paid version and there would be a charge for that. When apps are updated, new feature, new interface, etc. - there is no charge for that.
