The "real" or "good" mac adress are shown in /etc/iftab

eth0 mac 00:60:b3:97:ef:fb
eth1 mac 00:0a:e4:48:d5:dd

But as shown by "ifconfig -a" the eth0_clashed has a new/different/unknow mac adress

eth0_clas ... HWaddr 00:30:B4:00:00:00

This notebook is working like a charm since first beta of hoary. Wifi card has problem since udev 079-0ubuntu09

I wondering if you test mac adress of the wifi card after or before loading firmware ?!
It's a "Network controller: Intersil Corporation Intersil ISL3890 [Prism GT/Prism Duette] (rev 01)"
