Let's go ahead and try it. If your interface is usb0, make sure ifplugd is not running and invoke: ACTION=add INTERFACE=usb0 sh -x /etc/hotplug.d/net/ifplugd.hotplug > > Note: make sure that you substitute "<interface>" with the name of your > > interface in all the commands listed above. > > Ah, yes :) > > Now, here's another thing: For some reason related to kernel upgrades, > I now have a 'zaurus' kernel module.
