TonyMac32 Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 I just picked up a USB-C hub, it has 3 USB 3.0 ports, 2 SD card slots (standard and micro), a DVI and a GbE ethernet. Using it with my NanoPC T4, and a test with the Renegade Elite (not Armbian) both showed an odd behavior with the GbE, the driver loads, but then claims it doesn't recognize the device after reading it's firmware. Does anyone else have an adapter based on this chip? My cell phone recognized it and used it right away [ 2186.114873] r8152 7-1.4:1.0 (unnamed net_device) (uninitialized): Unknown version 0x6010 [ 2186.114896] r8152 7-1.4:1.0 (unnamed net_device) (uninitialized): Unknown Device ok, found a rejected patch, so some digging should help https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/757827/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyMac32 Posted February 17, 2019 Author Share Posted February 17, 2019 OK, that one-liner works. From what I can tell the shift from vid:pid to this firware revision was to reduce source code overhead, and it broke the 0x6010 cards that worked beforehand. I'll stick this in rockchip64 and rk3399 default kernels. For reference, my test device is https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B079GSMZ7G/ I didn't realize how tiny it was. @Igor I pushed this to the two 4.4 kernel 64-bit rockchips, I obviously can't see how it works against USB2 (where perhaps the firmware revision matters?)

Igor Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 It should be fine. 8153 seems to come only in a USB3 package anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
