usbd problems
« on: October 10, 2004, 07:10:40 pm »
Hi,

Ever since I upgraded to 3.5.1, I have been unable to get the network connection working with my 5500.

On my linux box, usb0 shows up, and I can

Code: [Select]
ifconfig usb0 192.168.129.1 netmask 255.255.255.255 up
route add -host 192.168.129.201 usb0

Without any errors. However:

Code: [Select]
# ping 192.168.129.201
PING 192.168.129.201 (192.168.129.201) 56(84) bytes of data.
From 192.168.129.1 icmp_seq=1 Destination Host Unreachable
From 192.168.129.1 icmp_seq=2 Destination Host Unreachable
From 192.168.129.1 icmp_seq=3 Destination Host Unreachable

On the zaurus side, I've tried removing and then modprobing the usbdcore, net_fd and sa1100_bi modules, without any effect.

Also on the zaurus, I notice that when I am trying to ping it, I get in syslog:
Code: [Select]
NETDEV WATCHDOG: usbd0: transmit timed out It's as if its trying to send replies but they're not going through or something?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You sure those code snippets are right? You've got this one:
Code: [Select]
ifconfig usb0 192.168.129.1 netmask 255.255.255.255 up
route add -host 192.168.129.201 usb0

But you've got 192.168.129.1 in there. That should normally be 192.168.129.200.

Also, try restarting your Z while it's connected to USB. In Windows at least it doesn't work unless it's connected while rebooting (at least with my SL-5500 I can't reload the modules for some reason...).

Nope, those are all correct based on the docs I have.

I did manage to figure it out however: The Z was not setting any IP for usbd0 for some reason. (Shouldn't this have a default??)
