How do I start on my N900?

Hi, you may have my problem --missing kernel module for your usb2network adapter. Kernel 10power46, has build in only general usb networking. i.e. does not include all modules needed, for all possible usb devices - some may work and some nay not work.

if that is the case with you then download the module that i'm attached and do like root (you have to have installed pakage rootsh ), open terminal, change directory to the place that you download dm9601.ko, let assume that is in your documents folder:

Code:

cd MyDocs/.documents/
tar -zxvf dm.tar.gz
sudo gainroot
modprobe usbnet
insmod dm9601.ko

Assuming that you do not get any errors from the code here, then proceed like normal, start h-e-n, connect your adapter and after activateing hen, go and check do you have eth0 node in:

Code:

ls /dev/eth*

if you do then you are good to go
