Can't Get Desktop to Connect to SL-6000L

[rjray]

I followed the Wiki page closely, installing usbnet-standalone. Turns out I already had a usbnet.o module, and when the standalone package didn't work, I tried the originally. I always get the same results. From my kernal messages log (I'm running Fedora Core 1,current kernel is kernel-smp-2.4.22-1.2199.nptl):

And with all that, no actual connection between the two. I cannot create a usb0 interface device, and nothing new appears to kudzu (the new-hardware sniffer). I do have a module "acm.o" (under the usb hierarchy), but even with that force-loaded via modprobe, I get the above. I've had USB2.0 issues with flash drives, so I also tried plugging in the sync cable to a USB1.1 hub, to force it down to 1.1 when presented to the kernel (it's the only way I can get my Lexar to mount properly). Again, no difference.

I love this thing, but I'd like to be able to at least back it up. Actually exchanging data with my desktop would be just keen.

It looks like your desktop box thinks that the Z is a mass storage device.

What does 'lsmod' show on the Z?

What does 'lsmod' show on the Z?

pxa_bi
net_fd
usbdcore
prism2_usb
p80211
usbdmonitor
sharp_mmcsd_m
vtty
usb_ohci_tc6393
usbcore


Keep in mind, this is a factory-fresh SL-6000L. I haven't even been able to install the console application from the CD (I got the above via Konsole, downloaded from ZSI).

are you using the docking station or direct usb from the sl-6000

[rjray]

I wonder if the first of these is important?

Do you have some other mass storage device attached (as this definitely looks like the sort of output I get when I attach my Z for mass storage).

I think it's possible with the 6000 to change to mass storage mode. Try doing this and attaching, then switch back and try attaching again (in net mode).
