It appears that when the "dummy" network interface is statically compiled (i.e. not as a module) into the kernel, its name is now "dummy0". It used to have that name only when compiled as a module. However, the kernel configuration help text still says "dummy", not "dummy0" for a statically compiled interface. Has anyone noticed this? Has bugzilla.kernel.org returned after the kernel.org web site hack? When I try to access it, my browser times out.
