I recently purchased a Sharp Zaurus SL-5500 and would like to get it communicating with my HD-installed knoppix. In order to do this, I either need to buy a CF ethernet card for it, or, preferrably, install the usbdnet module on my knoppix PC. I tried doing it myself... downloaded the 2.4.20 kernel source, downloaded the usbdnet module patch, compiled everything according to the directions, and resulted in a kernel panic.

I have Win98 communicating with the Zaurus, so I don't really have an urgent need. However, the less I have to use Win98, the better off I am. If, at the next iteration of Knoppix, some kind soul could include the usbdnet module (as a loadable module), I'd be extremely appreciative. Or, if some kind soul with remastering skills wants to provide an ISO of Version 3.2-2003-04-15 with the usbdnet modules included, that'd be even cooler.

Thanks,
