I've been running xymon 4.3.3 on Fedora 14 for a month or two without any
issues.  I recently upgraded to Fedora 15 and now my "Network Traffic"
graph in trends is no longer working.  They changed up something with
network card naming in Fedora 15, and my NIC is no longer called eth0 (or
eth<anything>).  The interface is now called p33p1.  Should xymon be able
to figure that out on it's own or do I need to tell it to look for more
than ethX?

Thanks.

Could you at least provide the *actual* output of 'ifconfig' ?

If only the names have changed, then most likely you just need to adjust the regex on line 22 of xymond/rrd/do_ifstat.c, which is currently:

"^([a-z]+[0123456789.:]+|lo)\\s"

Maybe it should just be:
"^([a-z0123456789.:]+)\\s"
