Hmm... try the following sequence of commands (as root):
insmod pegasus
ifconfig eth0 <your stuff goes here>
If the ifconfig doesn't work, check the contents of the USB device file
again and make sure that it shows the pegasus driver. It sounds like
the USB subsystem is detecting the device at boot time, but doesn't load
the driver. If insmod doesn't find the pegasus driver, do "find
/lib/modules/<your kernel version here> -name 'pegasus*'", and use that
instead (less the '.o' at the end). If it doesn't find it, change back
into your kernel source directory and do (again, as root) "make modules"
followed by "make modules_install". Then repeat the 'insmod' and
'ifconfig' commands. Hopefully, this will work. If it does, all that
remains is to put the insmod in your boot scripts so your module will
load automatically at boot time. (If you use Debian, I can help. If
not, then someone else here will be able to shed light on it.)
Let me know how it goes.
