I had a thermal problem with an ethernet card.  Fortunately, I had a 
spare card.

I removed the old card and plugged in the new one.  Unfortunately, the 
card is now eth2 instead of eth1.
My dhcp server was on eth1.  So stuff is broken...  Like my formerly 
working mythtv setup.

How and where do I change stuff to reassign it to eth1?  
/etc/network/interfaces ?  any other files?
I can use the MAC.

Ubuntu Jaunty.  I uninstalled network manager.
