I would really appreciate a hint about this from someone who's gotten it working. When I plug the gumstix in, Windows says it sees an Ethernet Gadget and asks me to locate a driver. If I point it at the drivers folder in system32, it doesn't work. If I point it at the folder where linux.inf lives, it fails. If I put the linux.inf file in the drivers folder it fails. Google hasn't been helpful. USBNet works fine under Linux, but I'm doing some PIC development and the Microchip tools run under Windows. I'm using both of the UARTs available on the Audiostix... so I'd really like to be able to log into the gumstix via USBNet. thanks, darren |

For what it's worth, on an XP pro SP1 system I had no USBnet problems with r162 but I could not get it working with r396 no matter what I tried. Then I switched back to a Fedora host which works fine with r396, hoping that some later release would fix the XP problem.

Hmm... I'm using 414 now, I wonder if it's the same deal.

Whatever these problems were, USBNet/RNDIS r444 works without problems (XP pro SP1 and XP home SP2).

What are the appropriate steps and expected responses? I plug the Gumstix in, get a dialog saying "Locate Drivers", then what? darren |

Hi Darren, > I checked and indeed it didn't have DOS line endings. I corrected that > and tried again, but got the same "Cannot Install This Hardware" error. I can't remember when exactly I did what, but I think that you're supposed to provide the linux.inf file when asked for the locate driver. I have XP Pro. I'll have to try on another computer (my work computer hasn't had usbnet installed) and see what happens (that will have to wait until I get to work tomorrow). -- Dave Hylands Vancouver, BC, Canada http://www.DaveHylands.com/ |

I spent quite a while trying to figure out from the web exactly what a ".inf" file is and how you typically use one. Surprisingly I didn't have much luck. Doing "right-click / Install" on .inf files was mentioned several times. I can't figure out what XP wants from me. Do you remember if you had to "specify your own driver", or did the new hardware wizard somehow figure it out? |

My recollection, is that you power up the gumstix and then once it's up and running, that you plug it into the XP box, and windows recognizes it as a new device and asks for a driver. I believe that's when I provided the .inf file. Did you verify that you have usb running on the gumstix? -- Dave Hylands Vancouver, BC, Canada http://www.DaveHylands.com/ |

If I point the wizard at the directory containing the file, it just fails. If I pick "Choose your own driver", then Windows says "this file doesn't describe your hardware". I may have picked the wrong driver class... I tried "Network Client" as it was the only thing in the list that seemed appropriate, but maybe I got that wrong. > Did you verify that you have usb running on the gumstix? Yup. I built a 2.6.10 kernel for my SUSE box, and usbnet works fine with that. |

My wife graciously let me install usbnet on her XP machine, so I was able to capture screen shots of each step. You'll find them here: http://www.gumstix.org/tikiwiki/tiki-index.php?page=Windows_XP_usbnet I linked this into the tutorial as well. I did this with my gumstix which has a really old release (pre-modules) on it. I think you need to select "Network Adapter" rather than "Network Client". -- Dave Hylands Vancouver, BC, Canada http://www.DaveHylands.com/ |

Dave, you're my hero. My wife won't even let me install XP on her machine, let alone usbnet on top of that! C |

Looking at your screen shots I realized my XP box was only saying "Ethernet Gadget" and not "RNDIS Ethernet Gadget" which gave me a hint that RNDIS perhaps got turned off in the kernel that I modified. I plugged in a different gumstix with a recent unmodified root_fs_arm and it worked as advertised. thanks, darren |
