[leaf-user] Bering uClibc 3.1.1-Beta1 & CDCEther usb

[Frederick S. <sk8...@gm...>]

Hello,

I am trying to connect an actiontec gt701 with usb connection (the ethernet
connection is bad on the DSL modem) to my Bering uClibc firewall
(3.1.1-beta1, 2.4.34 kernel version).  I have successfully configured it on
another system running Linux kernel 2.4.31 (Slackware 10.2) using the
CDCEther and acm drivers and the associated hotplug functions.  However,
when connecting the device to the bering box, the usb subsystem doesn't
recognize that there is a kernel module available for it and generates a
message saying that the device is not claimed by any driver.  I have tried
editing the modules.usbmap to add the vendor and product ID's for the
device, adding a usb.agent to the hotplug subsystem and a host of other
things that didn't work.  I also have a generic usb serial device that will
work with any Linux system (SuSE, Slackware, Ubuntu, etc.) that I have tried
it with but not my Bering box.  I have even tried to edit CDCEther.c and
re-compile the kernel for Bering uClibc but without success there either
(this should work but I am sure that I am missing something here...).  What
am I missing?  I am using the uhotplug.lrp package and have all of the
modules that I need loaded properly.

Thanks,

Fred
