I am following the instructions in
http://openinkpot.org/wiki/SSHAccess to allow ssh access to my BeBook running openinkpot 2009 03 26.
I am pretty sure the ubuntu is a standard install. But it runs on a rather old P3 desktop with usb < 2.0.
I edited the /etc/network/interfaces file to include:
iface usb0 inet static
address 192.168.111.2
netmask 255.255.255.0
then try the ifconfig command:
ralph@en:~/BeBook$ ifconfig usb0 up
usb0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
ralph@en:~/BeBook$ sudo ifconfig usb0 up
[sudo] password for ralph:
usb0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
ralph@en:~/BeBook$ ifconfig -v usb0 up
usb0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
WARNING: at least one error occured. (-1)
As you can see I am not getting very far. My knowledge of these things is slight. Any help/suggestions are most welcomed
regards
