All,
I have a dual boot laptop with a 2.4.24 kernel and a 2.6.8 kernel. The 2.4.24 kernel USB recognizes USB on the Z. The 2.6.8 kernes does not. I have tried multiple times and builds. I can boot 2.4.24, talk to the Z, boot 2.6.8, fail, and then reboot to the 2.4 24 and talk - all w/o touching the Z.
Does anyone out there have a 2.6.8 or 9 kernel config they can send?

Thanks for the reply. I have tried to modify the .config based on the listing, however it still does not work.
Can you identify the specific USB configs required?
Should I try to cut and paste your USB section into .config?
Thanks,
Dan

Thanks,
I am not a USB guru; on the 2.4.24 FC1 system simply connecting the Z to the Linux USB port creates a connection. From there the USB appears as a TCP/IP connection.
On the 2.6.9 FC3T3 system nothing happens. The USB port does not come up.
My notes from when I built the FC1 system, now several months ago, refer to enableing USB POINT TO POINT, however that config does not appear in either config so I am at a loss.
Thanks again,
Dan

Hmm, ok, lets start
Did you configure your kernel properly? I think you need "CONFIG_USB_USBNET=m" and "CONFIG_USB_ARMLINUX=y" in your .config. Well, then try "modprobe usbnet" as root. Then put your Z into the cradle, and reboot it (I have to do this, dunno if you have to, and I don't know why; just do it, won't hurt). Then check with "ifconfig" (also as root) if you have the interface usb0. From then on, it should be like before. Do
/sbin/ifconfig usb0 192.168.129.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
/sbin/route add -host 192.168.129.2 usb0as root, where you have to replace 192.168.129.2 by the IP of your Zaurus, and 192.168.129.1 by a randomly chosen one from the same network (i.e., the first 3 numbers should be the same). Then try "ping 192.168.129.2" (again, replace what's necessary), if it works... voila If not, let me know what went wrong...
Cheers

Thanks,
I do not have the USB_ARMLINUX set.
I will try that as well as the ifconfig sections and let you know.
Thanks,
Dan

Also, when you have your Z plugged in and rebooted, check the output of "lsusb", it should definitely list it...
Cheers
Philipp

Thank you,
That worked. The remaining difference is the usb connection does not come up automatically. After a suspend resume the ifconfig usb0 192... command needs to be re-entered. This is not the case in the 2.4.24 kernel. Is there an additional config that can be entered?
Again thanks,
Dan
-
Uhh, I don't know, I always reenter the stuff, don't mind... anyone else?
Cheers
Philipp
P.S.: Fine that it works now, that's the most important thing
