Bug Description
resolvconf is unaware of how to handle biosdevname NIC names, which are of the form em* and p*p*.
In the resolvconf (1.63ubuntu9) source package, bin/list-records lacks these entries, and line 27 of etc/resolvconf/
PATTERNS="lo* eth* ath* wlan* ppp* *"
I am not sure of the preferred ordering to fix this.

Hmm, must read up on biosdevnames.... At http:// en.community. dell.com/ techcenter/ b/techcenter/ archive/ 2011/10/ 06/announcing- the-release- of-biosdevname- 0-3-11. aspx we learn:
Embedded devices: emX_Y (X = embedded LOM ID, Y = NPAR NIC index) -- e.g., em1_1, em1_2, em2, ....
Add-in cards: pXpY_Z (X=PCI slot, Y=port#, Z = NPAR NIC index) -- e.g., p6p1_1, p6p1_2, p6p2_1, ....
