Hi, I bought this little tiny linux board: http://www.acmesystems.it/arietta
I setup a sdcard as described there and the board boots -- as far as I can tell, since the user led on the board starts to play the heartbeat blues ;) Now... I cannot access the board. As far as I understood the docs, the board uses ethernet over usb and I thought (read: dont know for sure), that gentoo should load the appropiate kernel modules itsself ... but it doesnt. The modules which are there: /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/legacy /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/g_cdc.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/g_serial.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/g_ncm.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/g_midi.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/g_dbgp.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/g_ffs.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/g_hid.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/g_audio.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/g_acm_ms.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/g_ether.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/gadgetfs.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/g_multi.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/g_mass_storage.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/g_webcam.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/g_printer.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/udc /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/udc/udc-core.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/function /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/function/usb_f_fs.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/function/usb_f_ecm.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/function/u_ether.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/function/usb_f_obex.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/function/usb_f_rndis.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/function/usb_f_ecm_subset.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/function/u_serial.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/function/usb_f_acm.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/function/usb_f_mass_storage.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/function/usb_f_eem.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/function/usb_f_serial.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/function/usb_f_ncm.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/libcomposite.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/host /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/host/xhci-hcd.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/host/ehci-hcd.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/host/ohci-pci.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/host/uhci-hcd.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/host/ehci-pci.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/host/ohci-hcd.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/storage /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/storage/usb-storage.ko /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/class /lib/modules/3.17.2-RT/kernel/drivers/usb/class/usblp.ko (I stripped modules which are not of interest here off the list.)

How can I us ethernet over usb with Gentoo to access the Arietta G25 module... ? Thank you very much in advance for any help! Best regards, mcc
