Subject: [patch 2.6.26] rndis_host: support WM6 devices as modems
Date: Tue, 22 Jul 2008 13:55:58 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200807221355.59207.david-b@pacbell.net> (raw)
From: Thomas Backlund <tmb@mandriva.org>
This patch allows Windows Mobile 6 devices to be used for
tethering -- that is, used as modems. It was requested by
AdamW in kernel bugzilla:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11119
and Mandriva kernel-discuss list. It is tested and confirmed
to work by Peterl:
http://forum.eeeuser.com/viewtopic.php?pid=323543#p323543
This patch is based on the patch in the above kernel bugzilla,
which is from the usb-rndis-lite tree.
