There is no wlan0. and after loading libertas_tf there is neither wlan0 nor eth0 interface. I also tried renaming the eth0 to wlan0 in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and renaming /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/*-eth* to *-wlan*. Now i have wlan interface which also disappears on loading libertas_tf. 2010/6/12 G?bor Stefanik : > On Fri, Jun 11, 2010 at 10:08 PM, Assim Deodia wrote: >> Hi All, >> >> I am having some issues loading libertas_tf on XO-1 with kernel 2.6.31. >> >> 1) after unloading libertas and usb8xxx modules when i modprobe >> libertas_tf module eth0 (wireless interface) disappears. and instead >> wmaster0 appears. but iwconfig show ?wmaster0 does not have wireless >> extensions. lsmod shows libertas_tf and libertas_tf_usb module loaded. >> No error in system logs. no error by modprobe. but no wireless >> interface.
