Does anyone out there have a LinkSys USB100TX USB ethernet adapter and
a -current installation up to date as of last night? I've been told
that it didn't work, so I made some corrections last night to the
if_aue driver which should fix it, but naturally the person who told
me it didn't work decided to become unavailable for a week, which is
*much* longer than I care to wait to find out if my fixes work or
not.
 
Actually, any -current box from the last couple weeks or so should do,
as long as you sync /sys/dev/usb with the latest stuff from the tree.
You can even test it without recompiling your kernel by doing the
following:
 
# cd /sys/modules/usb
# make; make load
# cd /sys/modules/aue
# make; make load
# usbd -f /dev/usb0
<plug in LinkSys adapter to USB port>
 
If everything works, you should see aue0 and ukphy0 attached, and
of course you should be able to plug the thing into a network and
exchange traffic.
 
NOTE: do _NOT_ delay. Don't tell me "Sure, I have one; I'll try it
in a month and get back to you." This should only take a few minutes.
