Re: Cnet 611 support

OK I got it! 1371/0001 Device is now pinging back after lots of time and
hair pulling.

Problem was that Mandrake 9.2 puts and expects its drivers for this at
series in a directory called /3rdParty/at76c503 not /usb. This meant
that the  usbdfu.c routine knew it needed to load the driver but could
not find it (I think). More debug messages would have saved me lots of
time here as I am not a competent driver person at all.

I made this change to the CVS Makefile and it loaded the modules where I
needed them:

Makefile:

# SFG altered from usb to 3rdParty/at76c503 for Mandrake 9.2
#OLD ONE MODULE_DIR =
$(DESTDIR)/lib/modules/$(KERNEL_VERSION)/kernel/drivers/usb
new one >>>MODULE_DIR =
$(DESTDIR)/lib/modules/$(KERNEL_VERSION)/kernel/drivers/3rdParty/at76c503

Also made this change to ID the device:

at76c503-rfmd.c:

#define PRODUCT_ID_WL_200U            0x0002 /* WL-200U */
new bit >>>#define PRODUCT_ID_611                0x0001 /* SFG */

        { USB_DEVICE(VENDOR_ID_DICK_SMITH_ELECTR, PRODUCT_ID_DSE_XH1153)
},
        { USB_DEVICE(VENDOR_ID_DICK_SMITH_ELECTR, PRODUCT_ID_WL_200U) },
new bit >>>        { USB_DEVICE(VENDOR_ID_DICK_SMITH_ELECTR,
PRODUCT_ID_611) },

This now starts up and recognises the cnet-611 gadget.

I am not sure how the Makefile can be made to cope with Mandrake as it
obviously works fine for Debian??

Thanks to Joerg for help.
