No, this patch is broken. It just avoids the problem in 99% of cases, but it is not reliable. The real problem is that refcounting in cdc-acm is broken, and the kernel is accessing freed memory. The patches which really seem to fix the underlying problem can be found in this thread: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.usb.devel/32977 (see "[PATCH] N/3 cdc acm errors"). You also need this driver core fix: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.usb.devel/33132 > Anyone? > > Buy the way, I am also looking for usblan for 2.6, can I use usbnet > instead ?
