Subject: setting up a pda automaticly?
Date: Sat, 02 Nov 2002 17:22:03 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <marc-linux-hotplug-103625811104006@msgid-missing> (raw)

Hello!

i did look around the docu, but the parts i found are quite hard to get
through.... 

i am wondering about how to set up my PDA to be immediately reachable
through the net as soon as its put into its cradle...

the thing is linked through USB to the server...

actually i have to load the usbnet module by hand, and i don't know how
to let it be loaded automatically, and what to put into my
modules.conf....

nevertheless, that's the not so annoying part....

now i am running debian unstable, and have installed the hotplug package,
  the thing works nice with the other usb devices i have, but fails to
  recognize my PDA....

now each time i put the thing into the cradle, i have to make myself an
ifconfig usb0 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255
as root to get the network up and running....

i looked through some sample scripts, but they are not really clear to
me....

i looked into /etc/hotplug/usb.usermap and usb.usermap.local but the
thing is quite cryptic, also the usb sub dir stated in the sample setup
i read through doesn't yet exist on my system... so i keep wondering as
what i have to set up to make this work diligently...

first of all the data i collected from the system:
usb0: register usbnet 001/051, Linux Device
and:
usbnet
Speed: 12Mb/s (full)
  USB Version:  1.00
  Device Class: ff(vend.)
  Device Subclass: 00
  Device Protocol: 00
  Maximum Default Endpoint Size: 8
  Number of Configurations: 1
  Vendor Id: 0e7e
  Product Id: 1001
  Revision Number:  0.00

i thought of setting up in usb.usermap.local (which is otherwise empty)
yopy               0x0e7e      0x1001   0x0    0x0000       0x0000
0x00         0x00            0x00            0x00            0x00
0x0               0x00000000

and create an usb subdir with a script called yopy with the ifconfig
line....

does this have a chance of working?
