Problem with ifconfig usb0

[Vincent Lefevre]

I have the following error:

ay:/home/lefevre# ifconfig usb0 192.168.129.1 netmask 255.255.255.255 up
SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
usb0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
SIOCSIFNETMASK: No such device
usb0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device

What should I do?

Note: I'm using the 2.4.18-newpmac kernel.

I've just rebooted my machine and there's no problem with kernel 2.6.6.
However, if this could work with 2.4.18, this would be great.

Use the correct name for the device? On my Powerbook G3 (Pismo), when I plug in
my USB cablemodem (which also uses the usbnet driver), it shows up as eth3 (eth2
is the IP-over-1394 device, eth1 is my wireless card, and eth0 is the integrated
SunGEM). How about running 'ifconfig -a' at a prompt, and seeing if the device
shows up?

I did that, but I couldn't see any additional device.
