[Bug 153727] Re: Ethernet device's number increases by one after every reboot

During the last days I've focused my attention on the USB hotplug malfunction (as of point 10.). I came to the conclusion that: 13. freezing of Gutsy on my computers, completely disappears if the USB v2.0 controller is disabled through the BIOS setup, at the same time USB hotplug works OK through
