usbnet for Zaurus problem

Dear all,

since a few days, I try to set up USB networking to connect my Zaurus SL5500
to a Dell Lat D600 running Suse8.1 with a custom compiled Kernel 2.4.24.
From all I read so far, usb networking with the Zaurus should work out of
the box for >=2.4.21. With the default Suse Kernel 2.4.19 I managed fine
using usbdnet. With the 2.4.24 Kernel I had no success so far.

The Zaurus seems to be recognized after plugin:
> dmesg
....
hub.c: new USB device 00:1d.0-1, assigned address 2
usb.c: USB device 2 (vend/prod 0x4dd/0x8004) is not claimed by any active
driver.

The only usb modules loaded according to lsmod are:

Module Size Used by Tainted: P
usbserial 18524 0 (autoclean) (unused)
ehci-hcd 17800 0 (unused)
usb-uhci 23500 0 (unused)
usbcore 63648 1 [usbserial ehci-hcd usb-uhci]

(complete output: http://www.desy.de/~wichmann/linux/lsmod.txt )

When I then try to load usbnet by hand, I get the following errors:

>insmod usbnet
Using /lib/modules/2.4.24D600/kernel/drivers/usb/usbnet.o
/lib/modules/2.4.24D600/kernel/drivers/usb/usbnet.o: unresolved symbol
bitreverse_Rbaeb160c
/lib/modules/2.4.24D600/kernel/drivers/usb/usbnet.o: unresolved symbol
generic_mii_ioctl_R38a67c48
/lib/modules/2.4.24D600/kernel/drivers/usb/usbnet.o: unresolved symbol
crc32_le_Ra34f1ef5

Needless to say, that usbnet is not loaded (but it is of course )enabled in
the kernel config
( http://www.desy.de/~wichmann/linux/k...600-config.txt )

I'm probably missing something, but don't see it.

Any hint would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks and cheers,

Riko

Um, usbdnet is now in the kernel, but it hasn't changed name. At least
on my 2.4.21 (SuSE 9.0) it's still usbdnet.

The kernel sources of 2.4.24 don't have a usbdnet module source anymore ...
I just checked. The usb how-to for connecdting the Zaurus claims, starting
from 2.4.21 one should use usbnet instead of usbdnet ...
