I don't think there is a driver module for it out of the box with the Zaurus so you will need to compile one yourself.

How do I compile this module?

Hi, I have just bought the same USB to Ethernet adaptater. It seems that there is a OPENBSD/Zaurus working stuff :

As shasn, i could try to make the module, but i do not know from where to start??
Here are the data that i have found about this product :
Ethernet Adapters
In addition to the "software emulated" adapter model used in smart peripherals, there are also single-purpose adapters using real hardware. In particular, the ASIX 8817x chips are used in a wide variety of high speed (480 Mbit/s) capable 10/100 Ethernet adapters. There are also 10/100/1000 versions.
Device Minidriver * Notes
ASIX 88172, * asix
ATEN UC210T, *
D-Link DUB-E100, *
Hawking UF200, *
Linksys USB200M, *
Netgear FA120, *
Intellinet, *
ST Lab USB Ethernet, *
TrendNet TU2-ET100, *
... All these are based on the same core hardware. This originally used separate driver, but then it merged with "usbnet". Later kernels split out this minidriver into its own module.
And the details about the hardware is :
ASIX AX88172 usb-to-ethernet controller & RealTek RTL8201 PHY
Stupid questions :
Where to find the sources?
How to compile the sources (ie on the zaurus, something like ./configure, make..)
or with one of the "cross stuff" on a PC x86 ??
Can i use the openbsd module as is?
why i bought this stupid USB adaptater and not a CompatibleWithMeanieModule One ??

according to http://www.qbik.ch/usb/devices/showdescr.php?id=2520 (http://www.qbik.ch/usb/devices/showdescr.php?id=2520) that adapter should work with usbnet module (atleast when used 2.6 kernel - don't know how it looks in 2.4-crapix)
-
thanks, but i would like to use it with the sharp rom of my C1000 (Linux kernel 2.4.20)...
-
i finally found some sources for the AIX88172 here :http://ax.thepredatory.net/status.html
and then what did i need to do ??
It seems that there is a need of the kernel source to compile this driver (in the readme), then where to find the kernel source for the C1000? and more, how to compile it ?? need help!
PS : the tetsu kernel source could be used ?
-
I found that there where a cramfs img that meanie built with everything needed to compile stuff !!. it will not be usefull, because driver exist in the latest cacko rom (1.23) !!!
It seems to work, i just need to find a way to confgure the office proxy to have access to the internet ...

Use Network Setup application to configure USB LAN connection.

This is supported in Cacko 1.23 ROM
