[Ekiga-devel-list] ethernet detection in PTLib

[Peter Robinson <pbrobinson gmail com>]

Hi All,

I've already reported this upstream in the PTLib tracker [1] (which
BTW is not mentioned anywhere I can find in the opalvoip site) but as
of Fedora 15 and later on a new install the network devices won't be
named ethX [2] but rather based on chassis or PCI locations to ensure
consistent naming if the system changes. This unfortunately breaks
PTLib's detection of ethernet devices so this is just a heads up.

Cheers,
Peter
