modprobe g_ether problem

[cachou]

I installed usbnetwork on my Kindle DXi, also typed ;debugOn and `usbNetwork, it seems OK here. Then, I typed lsusb -n in the terminal, shows

Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0525:a4a2 Netchip Technology, Inc. Linux-USB Ethernet/RNDIS Gadget

Error occurred when I modprobe g_ether, it says No such device, either as I run usbnetwork script.

FATAL: Error inserting g_ether (/lib/modules/2.6.32-zen6/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/g_ether.ko): No such device

Help me~ Thank you very very much!

But if you installed usbnetwork, and can access a terminal to type lsusb, g_ether has already been loaded !

How else do you think you could get to telnet or ssh to your kindle?

I am quite sure, there is no zen-kernel on the kindle :-D I suppose he tried to load the g_ether module on his own machine.

I didn't even notice that. I was actually puzzled on how he managed a 2.6.32 kernel on his kindle!

Thank you all above, I have solved my problem.

I followed the tutorial, but it mistyped "`usbnetwork" to "`usbNetwork". There is no cap on 'N' I re-checked the usbnet directory.
