That works too, I'll leave it to people who know more about the whole USB system to say which is the best fix. Just changing the Zaurus specific part of usbnet.c won't impact other drivers or devices. > I'm assuming that some bug in the hotplug scripts, since fixed, > covered up this problem. I'm pretty sure I've seen Zaurii use > hotplug to load "usbnet" before. Perhaps different models or versions (mine is a 5500 with the 2.37 rom). I just took a look at the lates hotplug scripts 2003_08_05, and the behavior is the same. If not INTERFACE= is given, these values are set to 1000, which won't match anything. So I will repeat my assertion that something must be changed for this device to be recognized hotplug. With the usb.c change, two interfaces appear: PRODUCT=4dd/8004/0 TYPE=2/0/0 INTERFACE=2/6/0 PRODUCT=4dd/8004/0 TYPE=2/0/0 INTERFACE=10/0/0 I don't have CDCEther or acm compiled.
