The intention is that people who have trouble with the default modules (like myself with an IPAQ 3970 and an IBM ThinkPad 42 and several other users) can easily switch to the alternative USB networking code without having to recompile and reinstall the kernel. Modifications necessary to actually switch to the new modules are done automatically by the following script, which can be run as part of the OE build process by adding ROOTFS_POSTPROCESS_COMMAND += "<path to script>; " to the local.conf. If ed is installed on the IPAQ, then it can also be run there, otherwise the config file changes have to be done manually. --------------------------------------------------------- #!/bin/sh cd ${D:-/} # autoload g_ether instead of usb-eth rm -f etc/modutils/usb-eth echo 'g_ether' >etc/modutils/g_ether # use same configuration for usb0 (provided by g_ether) as # for usbf (provided by usb-eth) - cannot have both at the same time ed etc/network/interfaces <<EOF /usb0 s/dhcp/static a address 192.168.0.202 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.0.0 gateway 192.168.0.200
