Title: Blueangel Don't Register Via Usb
Post by: mndctrl on January 31, 2006, 10:34:34 am

I'm trying to connect to my Blueangel running GPE over the usb-eth bridge.

I'm running gentoo on linux 2.6.12 ( so Its not the known Zaurus register issue ).

Module usbnet is loaded, but no usb0 device.

lsusb shows only my mouse:

Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 046d:c012 Logitech, Inc. Optical Mouse
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  

Tried this on two different computers, but no luck on any of them :/

Does anyone have any idea what might cause this?

I'm getting the same issue running both Opie ang GPE.

Is the usb0/usbd0 (I don't know what a blueangel is or what kernel version it's running) interface up on the machine running GPE/Opie?

Seems to be working fine too. ifconfig shows it with ip and everything!

Its called usb0

Interesting. Even without the modules working correctly on the PC side, I'd expect to see some mention of the device in dmesg/lsusb et cetera.

Not sure I can give you much more help, anyone else?

No need

I actually figured out what I was doing wrong.

You need to have the usbnet module loaded, have the cradle connected to the usb and then boot up linux on the blueangel while its in the cradle.

That made it work for me!

One time I had to remove the BA from the cradle and put it back in, in order to make it work.
