Public bug reported: Running Ubuntu Feisty. I have noticed that Avahi was isntalled. but what was strange, or incorrect, is that Eth0 is NOT enabled on this machine. Only ath0. why is Avahi tied to eth0 and not ath0? $ifconfig ath0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:15:E9:A8:E5:28 inet addr:192.168.0.50 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::215:e9ff:fea8:e528/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:117535 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:85253 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:98954626 (94.3 MiB) TX bytes:16908080 (16.1 MiB) Interrupt:10 Memory:e0010000-e0020000
