** Summary changed: - pegasus usb-ethernet driver does not work in Edgy + user is not informed if there is not enough power for usb devices
** Description changed: + EDIT: Original title was: "pegasus usb-ethernet driver does not work in + Edgy" -- edited when the real reason was found out (see last post and + linked debian bug report)... + + Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.17-10-generic In Dapper my usb ethernet adapter worked out-of-the-box. After upgrading to Edgy RC it didn't. Booting into the last Dapper kernel (2.6.15-27-686) fixes the issue. The device uses the pegasus driver. In 2.6.15-27-686 connecting the device makes this appear in syslog (and everything Just Works): --- Oct 21 13:52:07 localhost kernel: [ 616.861394] usb 1-1.3: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 5 Oct 21 13:52:07 localhost kernel: [ 616.994323] pegasus 1-1.3:1.0: setup Pegasus II specific registers Oct 21 13:52:08 localhost kernel: [ 617.113437] pegasus 1-1.3:1.0: eth0, ADMtek ADM8511 "Pegasus II" USB Ethernet, 00:50:fc:8e:6c:bb Oct 21 13:52:08 localhost kernel: [ 617.113595] usb 1-1.3: 60mA over 100mA budget!
