Hello,
I have recently spent quite some time google-ing and trying to get the following usb-adapters to work on my C1000 with Cacko: - an Asus WL-167G wifi stick, uses the rt73-kernel module, found instructions and source for the driver, but couldn't compile it (I'm using eviljazz's kernel and his source tree, and Meanie's zgcc-2.95.2, big thanks to both of them!) - a Zyxel G-202, managed to compile the zd1211b driver from the sources found on http://ldrolez.free.fr/software/zauruscode/, but "device is not claimed by any active driver" - an Usb-ethernet adapter using the AX88178 Chip, which might or might not be supported by the usbnet-driver, could not find out for sure - drivers available from Asix only for 2.6.x, - dmesg says once more "device is not claimed by any active driver" . I'd be happy if somebody could give me a hint on any of these devices, even if it is "give it up, it doesn't work" (at least I stop wasting time ![]() |

"device is not claimed by any active driver" is a sure sign that the vendor/product id supplied by your USB device isn't on the list hardcoded into the driver.
"lsusb" will give you the ID of your dongle (in the form NNNN:NNNN), and you can add it to the source code of the driver before recompiling it. |

Thank you very much for putting me on the right track, pelrun! Talking of the zd1211b, I had already added the usb ids to zdusb.h, but didn't realize they also needed to be in zdusb.c. Now the module loads automatically when I insert the wifi adapter, and I get an interface wlan0! Now, I'll give my AX88178 Usb-ethernet adapter a try ...

Hey wow! I was wondering of this myself. Any luck on the rt73 driver? That's the wifi card I have also.
