Those "device not accepting address" errors indicate pre-hotplug problems with your USB setup. Did you try the "uhci" driver? It might not have that "device not accepting address" error. Is the AC adapter hooked up to your Zaurus? I don't think the SA-1100 can be bus-powered. Did you try using the port which does seem to be working (for your CF adapter)? In any case, that's likely the reason you're not having success: hotplug can't kick in until _after_ USB itself is working, but so far it isn't. If usb-storage doesn't hotplug for you, but works, I'd also have to suspect something odd about your hotplug setup. But at least it looks like that device talked to USB. Also, try skipping "usbdnet": use the original "usbnet" driver, which has finally gotten the (small) patch needed to teach it how to use the protocol your Zaurus expects. Use on 2.4.20-rc1: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-usb-devel&m3679596705336&w=2 With that patch, "usbnet" now handles all the common Linux PDAs: iPaq and Yopy (using standard ARM Linux kernels and "usb-eth"), also Zaurus (using the Lineo kernel and "eth-fd"). - Dave ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Linux-hotplug-devel mailing list http://linux-hotplug.sourceforge.net Linux-hotplug-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-hotplug-devel
