Eth0 is the old network interface which i find also in Yast.
I think eth1 was automatically added by xen from the config file but i
find it in Yast and (see on the top) the os also find it.
Should i changed something in this file?
Just edit this and put the new mac in the line that defines the old
eth1, and delete the 'new' NIC. There's probably some means of

As I wrote, just edit this file to match your current interfaces. The
easiest way to do it is just delete the line that ends with eth0, and
change eth1 to eth0. When you reboot, the interface with mac
00:16:3e:00:00:d5 will then appear at eth0.
All this file does is store persistently the mappings generated when
udev finds a new device - a big improvement from the days when the
interfaces could change names/order under different OSs, or even
randomly at boot time :( The downside is that you may need to go and
manually delete/edit mappings when changing 'hardware'.
