Bug#455899: damned ADMtek junk
Sorry for the delay in repliing, but I was expecting a proper solution could
be found. Right now I find the situation hopeless.
In case it helps others, this is the script I use to work around it. It's
a really nasty hack, but works ~90% of the time, and with this I only need
to manually attend the device once a day or so.
rmh@nslu:~$ tail -n 3 /etc/rc.local
sh -c "while sleep 10 ; do while ping -c 1 192.168.1.1 >/dev/null ; do sleep 10 ; done ; rmmod pegasus ; /root/pegasus_hack ; done" &
exit 0
rmh@nslu:~$ cat /root/pegasus_hack
#!/bin/sh -e
usbid=`lsusb | grep -v "ID \(05e3:0702\|0000:0000\)" | sed -e "s/^Bus [0-9]* Device [0-9]*: ID \([^ ]*\) .*/\1/g"`
if [ "$usbid" = "" ] ; then
usbid=0000:0000
fi
exec modprobe pegasus devid=Crap:$usbid:0
Not sure how you feel about closing this bug. Perhaps it'd be a good idea
to document it or leave it open + wontfix or similar, so that others can
avoid (some of) the hassle.

Sorry, I got rid of that device a while ago. Anyway, my impression is that
this is a bug in the firmware, not in Linux. Maybe it would be possible to
work around it in Linux, but it'd be extremely difficult without at least
knowing what's causing the firmware to hang.
