My comcast sharkfin started losing link so I got them to get me a new one.
It's a Motorola SB5120.
1. Is anyone using the USB interface on this one? (ethernet works fine)
2. I'm using Fedora Core 2 and it doesn't recognize the device as a usbnet
device. CDCether is builtin in this kernel 2.6.10-1.12_FC2
CONFIG_USB_CDCETHER=y
3. Tried Knoppix 3.6 -- No joy
4. Ran Kudzu which found the device and added "alias eth2 usbnet" to
modprobe.conf but eth2 is not recognized as a device and usbnet doesn't get
loaded. (hwconf says "driver: unknown")
Google doesn't help much. Tried SB5100 Surfboard 5100 etc...
Any clues?
