hardy udev b43 wlan0_rename fix

[el es]

Binary package hint: udev

Current Hardy 8.04 latest beta (done yesterday a dist upgrade from Gutsy)

When I managed to get the b43 kernel driver to work, as in this solution:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/b43-fwcutter/+bug/202567

I noticed that udev creates the wlan0_rename interface;

The fix, according to Larry Finger on bcm43xx-dev mailing list is :

----
It is a mac80211-introduced "problem". With bcm43xx-softmac, there is only a single device
presented, and one does not care what type it is when it is renamed. With mac80211 (used by b43), at
least two devices are available, wmaster0 with type==0x801, and wlan0 with type==1. Without the
ATTRS{type==1} clause, wmaster=>eth1 and wlan0=>wlan0_rename. With the clause, only wlan0 is subject
to renaming and all works OK.
----

So far the situation is that Network Manager Applet displays 2 different interfaces for the wi-fi card : one is eth1 (and both are shown as WIRED apparently...).

The temporary solution is (again, published on bcm43xx mailing list):
1. go to /etc/udev/rules.d
2. sudo mcedit 70-persistent-net.rules
3. comment out the line
# PCI device 0x14e4:0x4318 (bcm43xx)
# SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="00:0e:9b:bf:af:f4", NAME="eth1" <this line

4. save, exit back to terminal
5. sudo rmmod b43
6. sudo modprobe b43
7. udev will add a line like this to the aforementioned file:

# PCI device 0x14e4:0x4318 (b43-pci-bridge)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{address}=="00:0e:9b:bf:af:f4", ATTR{type}=="1", NAME="wlan0"

Now the Network Manager shows the wlan0 interface correctly as wireless adaptor.

Did this, works for me.
