I would like to help with this, but I can't develop a solution without more information. Have you been able to develop a patch to your init scripts that helps? Also, I'm guessing you had to make some changes to get the Zaurus working, and those might be part of the situation. If you have another distro that works, perhaps see what solution they employed.

kernel patch for usbdnet (for Zaurus)
The patch for the Zaurus was not included upto 2.4.20. I have not checked
versions after this.
I patched the acpi kernel. The new usbdnet module must be selected in the
kernel build, and the following parameters entered:
USBD Network Vendor = 04dd
USBD Network idProduct = 8004
Because of security restrictions in the Zaurus, the IP address should be
obtained from the Zaurus DHCP-server.
Create the net.usb0 and edit the net entry for usb0 for DHCP.
The Zaurus will go online correctly, and can be seen in ifconfig.
(It can also be synchronized by the Qtopia Desktop, which must be installed
separately).
I have not yet experimented with the net.usb0, but will do so in the next few
days.

Please test with a recent kernel and reopen this bug if the problem persists. please try the latest kernel and baselayout and see if that makes any difference |
