strange module behavior, neat crashes , deja vu

[Ted Kaczmarek]

Picked up a Linksys usb 2.0 ethernet card, popped it in and works like a
charm. Comes up as eth1 everything is grand. Edit modules.conf, 
alias eth0 8139too
alias eth1 ax8817x
reboot, and no network.

Had to edit modules.conf 

alias eth1 8139too
alias eth0 ax8817x

and 
ifcfg-eth0 use device eth1
ifcfg-eth1 use device eth0

Unfortunately that does not work if you boot without the usb nic.

Also the dreaded redhat-config-network crashes are back again as well.

Oh well, you win some you lose some :-)

Were off to see bugzilla, the wonderful ....
