Comment 3 for bug 714904

I forgot to mention that I'm using the same 1.1.0-15ubuntu2 version from ifenslave-2.6 than Rob. And my kernel is 2.6.35-25-server #44-Ubuntu SMP.

The info in /proc/net/bonding/bond0 wasn't actually outdated. There is some problem setting up the bonding device and it's settings. I had to take the device down with ifconfig, then put the mode manually to /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/mode and then restart the networking to get the proper settings loaded. A reboot messes up the settings again. This smells like another bug...
