My problem consisted in that the modules were loaded before the system booted, while the control was in the initial ram disk. Things got complicated when I upgraded to 2.6.15 kernel, in that case there was a race condition between modules, sometimes eth0 was the wireless adaptor and sometimes was the cable adaptor.
I did not solve that problem exactly. What I did is to use ifrename package to rename the interfaces so I am sure which one is the wireless updater and which one is the RJ45 adaptor. -- http://antares.sip.ucm.es/~luis In a world without walls, who needs Windows(R)?
