When I add br0 (brctl addbr br0), and I show bridge list (brctl show) it's eth0 which is in the list. It's a bug ?

All is in subject.

Example :

root@harobed:~ # brctl show
bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces
root@harobed:~ # ifconfig
lo Lien encap:Boucle locale

root@harobed:~ #

Supplementary informations :
* eth0 is Ethernet card
* eth1 is wireless card enabled (with On/off laptop button)

Thanks for your help.

What is the hardware address of your eth0?
It looks like it is 00:00:00:00:00:00 which implies a hardware problem?

Look at 'ifconfig eth0' output
