For the usb networking to work, your laptop ip doesn't change, just the
ip address for the usb port on your laptop. Did you follow all the steps
in the documentation: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/USB_Networking ?
The line
ifconfig usb0 192.168.0.200 netmask 255.255.255.0
will set your laptop usb to ip address 192.168.0.200 and the following (on the
laptop) will set up a route to the phone.
/sbin/route add -host 192.168.0.202/32 dev usb0
Once you can communicate between the laptop and phone (both ways), you can set
up your resolv.conf on the phone
and follow the instructions for your laptop distributions in "Automatic method"
to enable the phone to communicate with the
internet.

When you upgrade the kernel, you also need to install the appropriate

As yet I have only found modules files which are .tgz,(in the Official
repository and in Scaredycat's.) However after I installed
uImage-2.6.22.5-moko11-r2-fic-gta01.bin
again, I found I have some modules in
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/lib/modules/2.6.22.5-moko11.( I also have modules for
the previous kernel 2.6.21 which puzzles me. Why were they not lost
when it was overwritten?)
These are probably the essential ones, there seem to be many more in
the file modules-2.6.22.5-moko11-moko11-r2-fic-gta01.tgz
Although I have the usb0 device in the laptop and can log in from
there to the Neo, I have yet to comprehend the usb networking. I can
scp files into the Neo but as yet can't get it to access files from
outside itself.
The document http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/USB_Networking
assumes the laptop is in net 192.168.0 and it will take me a while to
work out what to do about that. Changing my current networks would be
a big job.
I would really like to see items in the wiki dated, and the version of
phone and software quoted, so that outdated or irrelevant items can be
ignored, and possibly removed.
Thank you,
more later
