FYI:
On my kubuntu (ubuntu with KDE installed by default) using the KDE
NetworkManager I followed the advices on
http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/USB_Networking#Debian.2C_Ubuntu_and_others
but insereted "auto usb0" into /etc/network/interfaces as suggested by arne.
It looks now like that:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# freerunner
auto usb0
allow-hotplug usb0
iface usb0 inet static
address 192.168.0.200
netmask 255.255.255.192
post-up /etc/network/freerunner start
pre-down /etc/network/freerunner stop
After a reboot (NetworkManager did not want to play well i.e. did not adopt to
the changes) I get "Device usb0: unmanaged" and everything works as expected:
My FR get's configured by /etc/network/freerunner and my (W)LAN-connections a
correctly handled by NetworkManager.
I guess this solution solves the issue for Ubuntu and all it's derivates too.
Probably for all KDE-Installations as it seems that the key is to make the
NetworkManager ignore the usb0-Interface.
