Description Dieter Bloms 2005-08-10 20:55:41 UTC

Hi,

I have connect the DSL Router "AVM FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN" via usb to my computer.
Yast2 saw this device, but says that this device don't need any driver (they may
be included in the kernel).
So yast2 doesn't load any module for this interface and can't determine the mac
address and writes the config file under
/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-bus-usb-1-2:1.0, which was not found when booting
the system

from y2log:
--snip--
y2log:2005-08-10 19:54:27 <1> gateway(8535) [YCP] Lan.ycp:534
hw=$["active":false, "bus":"usb", "busid":"1-2:1.0", "drivers
":[], "hotplug":"usb", "link":nil, "mac":"", "module":"", "name":"AVM USB DSL
Device", "num":1, "options":"", "requires":[]
, "type":"usb", "unique":"cLrx.dyjIwAU2zY1", "wl_auth_modes":nil,
"wl_bitrates":nil, "wl_channels":nil, "wl_enc_modes":nil]
y2log:2005-08-10 19:54:27 <1> gateway(8535) [YCP] Lan.ycp:535 device=bus-usb-1-2:1.0
--snip--

If I load the driver usbnet befor calling yast2, then yast2 says it needs no
kernelmodul, but now yast2 can determine the mac address and writes the configs
in the right configfile /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-usb-id-00:04:0e:4b:3b:1c

But after a reboot the interface can not be setup, because the driver usbnet
isn't loaded. After "modprobe usbnet; rcnetwork retsrat eth1" the interface is up.

So yast2 has to use the driver usbnet for this dsl router connected via usb.

I will add hwinfo, y2log and dmesg..

Hwinfo needs to tell yast to use usbnet for this piece of hardware.

I assume that the Driver item above comes from having manually loaded the 
module. Yast needs "Driver Info #0:"

please attach the result of 'getsysinfo'

I've load the usbnet manually to get my internet connection.
If I should do it without manualy load usbnet, please let me know.

Dieter, would you please have a look at bug 105621 and add the info requested by
Greg, that he may fix the drivers id table?

Comment 8 Steffen Winterfeldt 2005-08-24 14:23:53 UTC

looks like the usbnet driver needs updated modinfo data
