Bug Description

My USB ethernet thing worked a couple of years ago, I've not needed it for ages; now I do, it doesn't work :(

I plug it in and dmesg says:

[ 197.702118] usb 3-2.4: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 7
[ 199.091315] usb 3-2.4: device descriptor read/64, error -62

lsusb says "Bus 003 Device 007: ID 0a46:9601 Davicom Semiconductor, Inc. DM9601 Fast Ethernet Adapter"

Bug #285552 seems to be the same issue in hardy, but was marked "Fixed in intrepid" and I can't tell why, I'm using 10.04.1 and it's broken again...

Shish, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ .

If it remains an issue, could you run the following command from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report.

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

Thanks in advance.

Trying to use this device on Ubuntu 12.04:

Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0fe6:9700 Kontron (Industrial Computer Source / ICS Advent) DM9601 Fast Ethernet Adapter

When I plug it in I see:

[ 338.400000] usb 1-1: new full speed USB device number 2 using sw_hcd_host0
[ 445.360000] survey done event(23)

It appears there is no driver for this in 12.04 anymore? :(

I see people using these in 10.10 on the forum.
