Greetings LQers,
I have 2 FC6 linux boxes, both with TRENDnet USBtoEthernet adapters. On one box I have two usbtoEth connectors working fine. On the other I just connected one and almost immediatly the box hangs.
looking at lsusb and lsmod and modinfo i see both boxes have pegasus module and that seems to be the module for the kernel that handles my adapter.
on the good box:
Code:
$ /sbin/lsmod | grep pegasus
pegasus 30289 0
mii 9409 1 pegasus
$
(most of /sbin/modinfo pegasus , no 'alias' fields)
Code:
filename: /lib/modules/2.6.20-1.2962.fc6/kernel/drivers/usb/net/pegasus.ko

srcversion: 0DCD109B71346B69A9F84B6

depends: mii

parm: devid:The format is: 'DEV_name:VendorID:DeviceID:Flags' (charp)
parm: msg_level:Override default message level (int)
on the bad box:
Code:
# lsmod | grep pegasus
#

Any ideas?
