good day Matthijs,

have the two dmesg logs for the ubuntu machine and the fonera.
after some noise caused by the device initially appearing as a cdrom,
ubuntu loads cdc_ether being used by usbnet.

on the Fonera the device also looks like a cdrom, but it stays like
that. I can insmod usbnet on the fonera, but cdc_ether is not there.
