I have been having some problems with the usbd driver found at
oss.lineo.com under the Zaurus heading for linux-usb.  It is not a patch
and I can' seem to figure out how to compile it.  Dropping it into a
stock 2.4.18 kernel from kernel.org causes errors and I can't compile it
directly...  I am not sure how this module is supposed to be added.

I am running a Debian woody system with a stock kernel except for a
couple of patches including a usb printer patch for hpoj and the usbdnet
patch required for the zaurus. Hotplug is installed with debian. 
Modules install no problem:

usbdnet                13192   1

When I insert the Zaurus into the cradle it is recognized.  With this
entry in /etc/network/interfaces: 

> 
# The Zaurus 
iface usb0 inet static 
      address 192.168.129.1 
      pointtopoint 192.168.129.201 
      netmask 255.255.255.255

it appears as below with ifconfig autmoatically:

Here is the relevant section from /var/log/messages/:

I think the problem is I don't have the module usbd installed.Various
places on the net say my /var/log/messages should say: 

> 
hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/1, assigned device number 38 
usb.c: USB device 38 (vend/prod 0x4dd/0x8004) is not claimed by any
active driver.

How are these modules meant to be compiled
