6000 - Tosa / Usb Ethernet Adaptor

« on: June 28, 2005, 08:34:51 pm »

Has anyone tried using a USB ethernet adaptor with the SL6000? I looked at the sl6000 kernel source and it didn't have support for the either of the two adaptor's I'm thinking of buying, so I've back-ported the drivers from a more recent 2.4 series kernel (the ax8817x and rtl8150 usb drivers).

However, it's not worth me actually buying the thing if the Z won't put out enough juice to power it up. Anyone know if it's likely to work?

If it does work, eBuyer are flogging an RTL8150 adaptor from Dynamode for like, £6 - which is a bit of a bargain really....

Any chance you can post a link to the ax8817x driver ? I have a Linksys Compact USB 2.0 10/100 network adapter.

Thanks
