Kernel doesn't see USB ADSL modem - pegasus?

I have a SpeedStream 5200 ADSL modem, connected to the USB port. From what I
understand, the pegasus driver should see it. I installed 2.4.23-pre6,
modprobe'd usbnet and pegasus, but no new interface shows up. (I tested with
ip link show)

Maybe I should patch the driver to include a device ID or something of the
sort?

This is the contents of /proc/bus/usb/devices:

Try that, the driver currently does not support this device id.  Let us
know how that works.

So I should insert the following line in pegasus.h?

PEGASUS_DEV( "SpeedStream 5200 ADSL Modem", VENDOR_SIEMENS, 0xe240,
                DEFAULT_GPIO_RESET | PEGASUS_II )

Is the first string free to choose or do I have to match some output from
the device? Anyway, I'll try it tonight or tomorrow.

By the way, USB and ACPI are nice to each other again. Thanks Jun! You're
better at your craft than your distant relative Satoru
(http://www.grandprix.com/gpe/drv-naksat.html) was at his!

Cheers all,
Juan

Well, it didn't work -- I inserted the following line in pegasus.h:

PEGASUS_DEV( "SpeedStream", VENDOR_SIEMENS, 0xe240,
DEFAULT_GPIO_RESET | PEGASUS_II )

Because that's what appeared in /proc/bus/usb/devices. But now, modprobe 
pegasus hangs (the process, not the machine). Also, any attemp to access 
/proc/bus/usb hangs the process. Kudzu hangs too. Now I reached the 
limits of my knowledge. :(

Sorry, this device is probably not supported by that driver :(

Can you return it and get something else?

Good luck,

*sigh* I can use it with ethernet instead of USB. I don't mind 
installing a new piece of hardware in order to run Linux, but I'd like 
it to be "fully" compatible for the masses. Who in the kernel team would 
likely be able to come up with an USB driver if sent one of those 
devices? You? You? You over there? The fellow in the back row with the 
nose piercing? ;)
