Description Ulenrich 2008-06-05 18:31:42 UTC
Running gentoo ppc64 on a playstation i didn't get the device "wlan0" with a kernel >=2.6.25 + Geoff patches. I do not know for sure, but as i read the elog carefully i guess there has been missing an elog tip to delete a file 70-persistent-net.rules for new automatic generating. Through a mailing list i got it to work as follows:
     rm /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules \
         && udevadm trigger --subsystem-match=net

reached the goal of having device "wlan0". See further at http://ozlabs.org/pipermail/cbe-oss-dev/2008-June/004908.html 


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Running gentoo ppc64 on a playstation i didn't get the device "wlan0" with newer kernels.

Actual Results:  
iwlist eth1 scan
-> no wireless available
iwlist wlan0 scan
-> no wireless available

Expected Results:  
wireless lan

Added some elog about persistent-net to pkg_postinst of udev-122-r1.
