eth1 no such device


Hey, I was trying to install airsnort, so I got the orinoco 0-13e drivers and the patch file, applied the patch and recompiled and did a make install, and everything went fine (I thought).
I restarted and now there is no eth1 device.
I can run cardctl ident and get something like this:
prod info: "toshiba", "wireless lan card", "version 01.01", ""
and a couple of more lines

but when I do iwconfig or ifconfig, it doesn't show eth1
when I try iwconfig eth1, it says eth1 no such device. when I do a service network restart, it says bringing up interface eth1: [OK]

I have no idea where to go from here... is it a problem that the orinoco drivers aren't bound to that device, or....well, I don't know.

TIA.


P.S. when I was recompiling the orinoco sources, is there anything I should have done after applying the patch, making and make install?

i'm not farmliar with that distro, but do you have a alias for eth0 in /etc/modules.conf. Is the right module listed in /etc/modules. Does /proc/net/dev file say that the module has been loaded one time?
And does 'ifconfig -a' list eth0?

first off (though it doesn't matter, really), it's eth1, and I had added the line
alias eth1 orinoco
to the /etc/modules.conf
The right module is listed in thta file, and there is no eth1 anywhere in /proc/net/dev
ifconfig -a only has eth0 and lo
