Currently I have:
# PCI device 0x168c:0x0013 (ath_pci)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="00:11:95:bb:42:d6",
ATTRS{type}=="1", NAME="ath0"
# PCI device 0x168c:0x0013 (ath_pci)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="06:11:95:bb:42:d6",
ATTRS{type}=="1", NAME="ath1"
# PCI device 0x168c:0x0013 (ath_pci)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="0a:11:95:bb:42:d6",
ATTRS{type}=="1", NAME="ath2"
# PCI device 0x168c:0x0013 (ath_pci)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="00:04:0e:c4:82:3b",
ATTRS{type}=="1", NAME="ath3"
But I cannot do further tests now, because I currently access the
machine via this device. For now I cannot even say if these lines where
already there when I reported the bug.
If your guess is right, do you have a suggestion how to fix the problem?
Is it an udev bug?
I will look into this issue later when I have physical access to the
machine again. Thanks for now.
