Deneb Ethernet Driver
« on: February 23, 2009, 11:56:24 AM »
I am trying to get my 4000 connected to the internet. I have installed the deneb and it works fine with an optical mouse and jump drive. When I plug in the the ethernet adapter it see's it as AX88772 device. When I try to set up genesis I can not find the driver for the device. I believe the driver I am looking for is usbasixeth.device I can not find it anywhere on my computer. Any ideas?

The driver usbasixeth.device is generated in memory only.
You should see it with scout in the device list, but *not* on disk, so just enter it without any path name (like devs:).

You're welcome.

Oh. By the way, you can find such information also in the nice AmigaGuide file delivered with Poseidon:

Quote

To the AmigaOS the USB device is available through the  "usbasixeth.device" SANA-II device which is created in memory during runtime.
Hence you will not be able to find a file based device in DEVS:Networks as usually expected.


RTFM :-)

I tried a cheap $5 one off ebay that I couldn't get to work, but then again I didn't give it a lot of effort.. I will try it when I get home tonight. I bought the Deneb back around x-mas time with the holidays and in the process of getting married in two weeks I haven't had a lot of time to play around with it.

Chris worte a new driver for such "cheap" (and I mean cheap in price and design) adaptors on a user request... so chances are good.

Send me the psddevlister output (or at least ManId/ProdId) of the ethernet dongle, and I can tell you :-)

Hi
I'm in sort of the same situation, after reading the Poseidon guide file, I bought a USB->ethernet adaptor based on Moschip.
There's supposed to be a "moschip.class" in Poseidon (at least it is mentioned in the guide file as "included"). but the class seems to be missing in v4.2 and also in the older Poseidon versions.
Anyone know were I can get a hold of that .class file?

Thanks in advance.

Don't feel bad.  I did exactly the same thing when I set up my Trendnet TU2-ET100.  I kept fiddling around for ages, wondering why it wouldn't appear on the list until finally I realised that I could manually type it in!

Using a cheap PC Ethernet device instead of a Zorro based card means that the Deneb almost pays for itself immediately.

Which is one of the reasons why the RAPTOR never made it into production, but was dropped in favour of the DENEB during development :-)

Sure enough the cheap adapter works using dm9601eth.device and actually gets better speeds than the other adapter.

Raptor?  Didn't know about that one.

I can certainly see the logic though.  The Deneb thanks to the USB expansion possibilities opens up the big box Amigas in a whole new way.  I avoided the previous USB expansion options because of the way the stack was distributed, but the new distribution model which included the fully licensed software is perfect.  Having used the Deneb since it was released I can't imagine not having it.  I've been tinkering with an A1200 in a wedge case and another in a tower and I'm sorely tempted to add a Subway card.

I don't suppose anyone has made a Deneb/Poseidon website with hints, tips, tricks and lists of compatible hardware?
