Title: Usb Networking
Post by: jman on March 05, 2007, 12:07:36 pm
I've just installed OZ with GPE on my SL-C760 and I'm quite happy with it, but can't get usb networking to work at all. Although I've selected "Ethernet networking" in "USB settings", the Windows machine keeps detecting the Z as a USB mass storage device, and creates two read-only drives, one for the CF card and another one for the SD card.

I suspect is has something to do with the fact that when I was using Cacko before, I installed the drivers on the CD, so there may be some kind of conflict there.

Has anybody experienced such a bahaviour?

Thanks in advance.

It has to do with the 2.6 kernel. It uses a different driver and it is not compatible with Windows, it'll work fine with Linux. Try using the search option
