Hi everyone,
The ASIX AX8817X usbnet driver in the 2.6 kernel failed to recognize a
recent version of the Linksys USB200M USB 2.0 ethernet adapter. It
appears (see
http://www.sustworks.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Sustworks/USB-To-EthernetAdaptors
, search for "New Linksys USB200M") that Linksys is using the newer
AX88772 chipset instead of the older AX88172 in its latest USB200M
models. (This difference is not reflected in the model number. FWIW,
I own a model with serial number LCS105606689 which apparently uses
the newer chip.)
The new USB200M model also shows up under a different USB device ID.
The patch below adds an appropriate entry to the products table in
drivers/usb/net/asix.c. I tested the patched driver: it successfully
recognized the adapter I bought recently. I'm not aware of any
device-specific quirks, so I used the vanilla ax88772 driver info.
