Bug Description
I have a Motorola A780, that I could telnet to from Ubuntu, using usbnet and cdc-acm modules.
When following the instructions on the OpenEZX wiki (http://
usb0: register usbnet at usb-0000:00:10.2-2, pseudo-MDLM (BLAN) device, 8e:36:06:d5:16:9d
does not appear.
If I then try to do:
ifconfig usb0 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 mtu 900
I get error messages saying usb0 does not exist.
If I switch the phone from USB modem to USB LAN mode, dmesg shows the following:
[ 2134.368000] usb 2-5: USB disconnect, address 6
[ 2135.044000] usb 2-5: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 7
[ 2135.264000] usb 2-5: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
Nothing on usbnet.
Other articles/postings indicate I should check the contents of /proc/bus/
So: what's wrong here? It has worked before (before the upgrade to Gutsy that is...), so did the upgrade (or later the fresh Gutsy install) break something?

Just tried it with the Feisty live cd.
usbnet is working with Feisty, it is no longer working with Gutsy.
In http:// ubuntuforums. org/showthread. php?p=3714204 it is confirmed by another user that usbnet in Gutsy is broken.
