Ok, this is kinda weird...I got my wireless working with linuxant's driverloader. But the thing is, I have three NIC in my computer, 2 hardlines and 1 wireless. Now, before I installed driverloader when i was setting up gentoo, when the hardline was plugged into my onboard NIC card(which my old rh 9.0 listed as eth0), my inet was working fine. THen I unplugged the hardline, installed driverloader, rebooted and now it lists my wireless card(which was eth2 on my rh9.0) as eth0, while eth 1 and eth 2 are listed as having no wireless support when i use iwconfig. So somehow, did gentoo replace my mobo NIC with my wireless NIC as being eth0? Or did it just do this b/c when i boot up there is no active line going into my two hardline NIC's(i use hotplug to boot)? And ifconfig lists eth0 as functioning still also.

thanks,
coderunner
