Bug#313534: kernel-image-2.6.11-1-k7: usbnet not working with Zaurus SL-C1000 on usb



Package: kernel-image-2.6.11-1-k7
Version: 2.6.11-5
Severity: normal


I have plugged my SL-C1000 Zaurus for usb network connection.

The Zaurus gets detected (though through some little painful setup : adding proper USB setup in hotplug, but anyway that works).

# lsusb
Bus 002 Device 005: ID 04dd:9031 Sharp Corp. Zaurus C-750/C-760/C-860/SL-C3000 PDA

usbnet is loaded

# lsmod | grep usbnet
usbnet                 29128  0
usbcore               119352  7 usbnet,ehci_hcd,usbhid,ndiswrapper,usblp,uhci_hcd
mii                     5056  2 usbnet,8139too

But there is no usb0 interface appearing when ifconfig -a

nor did I get anything on dmesg or syslog about usbnet initialising :(

And :
# ifup usb0
SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
usb0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
Failed to bring up usb0.

It seems there is something non-standard with the USB implementation on the Zaurus : I think this patch may be necessary in the kernel : http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-usb-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg34891.html although I'm not sure if it applies to 2.6.11 or 2.6.12 ...

Maybe this will help solve bugs #311221 or #311222 although they may be linked to something else in prior stages (detecting the Zaurus connected to USB in hotplug, etc.) which I think I solved now.

Hope this helps.
