In a previous reply you said:
"For 8139too driver, it is a network interface PCI card
For r8169 driver, it is attached to the motherboard "
I have seen before that the OS will change the device if you have a PCI and
a built-in NIC. If you unplug the PCI NIC, the built-in NIC becomes
eth0. With the
PCI NIC plugged in, the built-in NIC becomes eth1 and the PCI becomes eth0.
Try unplugging the PCI NIC to check whether this is the case with your
machine; take note of the MAC address with the ifconfig command to track
which one is which.
I have not understood why this happens though. Maybe someone can shed some
light here.
