I new here on this email list. I have a Sharp SL-5500 PDA that *used* to work on my system. I've done something (stupid) to my system such that I can no longer get the USBNET connection to work. I'm trying to figure out what it is. In a nutshell, the log messages for CDCEther now state that its trying to bring up eth2 (instead of usb0) and things go downhill from there.
When I had it working, I was running RedHat 7.2 with an RPM from RedHat (kernel-zaurus-2.4.18-3-5.i386.rpm) which installed a usbdnet module which I was able to get working (kinda, it required a little intervention, but I was able to sync it using QTopia).
When I upgraded to RedHat 7.3, I got it working 1 or 2 times with some work (mostly remembering to rmmod any installed USB drivers before plugging the PDA in).
After upgrading to RedHat 9.0, I got it working exactly once. And never again. *HELP* (yes, I'm no longer using the kernel-zaurus package, becuase it no longer needed!)
I'm afraid that I've broken my hotplug configuration or a configuration file *somewhere* on my system, but I can't put my finger on which file, and re-installing the relevant packages (hotplug and others) have not fixed my setup.
Can someone point me in the right direction????
Here is the syslog excerpt from my last attempt to plug in the PDA:
Nov 21 16:21:53 kjc386 kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:07.2-2, assigned address 8 Nov 21 16:21:53 kjc386 kernel: CDCEther.c: eth2: Sharp SL Series Nov 21 16:21:53 kjc386 /etc/hotplug/net.agent: invoke ifup eth2 Nov 21 16:21:59 kjc386 kernel: usb-uhci.c: ENXIO 80000880, flags 0, urb c5ce36a0, burb c5ce3c20 Nov 21 16:21:59 kjc386 /etc/hotplug/usb.agent: Setup acm CDCEther usbnet for USB product 4dd/8004/0 Nov 21 16:22:00 kjc386 /etc/hotplug/usb.agent: ... no modules for USB product 4dd/8004/0 Nov 21 16:25:26 kjc386 kernel: usb.c: USB disconnect on device 00:07.2-2 address 8 Nov 21 16:25:27 kjc386 /etc/hotplug/net.agent: NET unregister event not supported Nov 21 16:25:28 kjc386 kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:07.2-2, assigned address 9 Nov 21 16:25:28 kjc386 kernel: CDCEther.c: eth2: Sharp SL Series Nov 21 16:25:28 kjc386 /etc/hotplug/net.agent: invoke ifup eth2 Nov 21 16:25:32 kjc386 /etc/hotplug/usb.agent: Setup acm CDCEther usbnet for USB product 4dd/8004/0
lsmod includes (among lots of others):
usbnet 15102 0 (unused) CDCEther 13756 1 acm 7360 0 (unused) keybdev 2752 0 (unused) mousedev 5236 0 (unused) hid 20868 0 (unused) input 5632 0 [keybdev mousedev hid] usb-uhci 24684 0 (unused) usbcore 73280 1 [usbnet CDCEther acm hid usb-uhci]
Mostly, why eth2? Why not usb0?????? I'm pretty sure that if I can fix this, it will just work again!
THANKS!
