Hi.
I have a Netgear MA 101 rev.B. It is supposed to work with usbvnetr driver.
And it also does, but apparently not on RH9. Since I upgraded my box from RH8
to RH9, it loads the module, but the module does nothing noticeable (precise
description below).
I thought maybe the hardware got broken, but when I try it on a different
computer (RH8), it seems to work without problems.
I tried release 2.1.2.2, 2.1.1 and CVS snapshot from 13.6. with the same
results.
It compiles without problems, there aren't any warnings. This is what syslog
says upon pluggin it in:
----------------------------------------------------
Jul 9 22:43:38 ten kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:02.3-1, assigned address 11
Jul 9 22:43:38 ten kernel: usb.c: USB device 11 (vend/prod 0x864/0x4102) is not claimed by any active driver.
Jul 9 22:43:41 ten /etc/hotplug/usb.agent: Setup usbvnetr for USB product 864/4102/100
Jul 9 22:43:41 ten kernel: usb.c: registered new driver usbvnetr
----------------------------------------------------
That's it, nothing more (driver was compiled with debugging on). lsmod shows
------------------------------------------
usbvnetr 93592 0 (unused)
------------------------------------------
ifconfig eth1 (eth0 is ethernet) shows:
------------------------------------------
eth1: error fetching interface information: Device not found
------------------------------------------
On the other machine where it works, the "registered new driver" is
immediately (same second) followed by a
kernel: usb vendor/product=864/4102
and lsmod shows usbvnetr being in use. both ifconfig and iwconfig show
meaningful data.
Hints?
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
