Roger,
You do get the prize for the least imaginative names.
Your naming system is superior to the "elementary" suggestion from
Gareth, - no need to remember that periodic table.

I just updated my system, resulting in no modules autoloaded on bootup.
It took down my network i/f, alsa, vid capture, usb
It appears have changed the way hotplug works and now need coldplug to
auto load modules on boot.

How is the eth0 device configured? Manually, or using DHCP? DHCP will,
by default, overwrite your /etc/resolv.conf with the values it receives
from the DHCP server. This isn't happening in your case, but it's worth
noting as a possible issue for users with similar configurations.

Sadly I have to admit... luke, leia, kenobi, vader, chewie.
However, by far the coolest naming system I've heard of (and one I
think mentioned briefly in the RFC Michael posted) is names of
elements.
This has the two advantages, besides having cool sounding names - the

Well, I was thinking it'd be a very good way
