I'm a bit confused here. This is the new Bone, not the original.
In any event, the Beagleboard XM is the one with the hub. (4 usb)
I want ethernet, not USB. Seeing later in this thread, I guess I pass
on this one. Not what I am looking for.
One of these days, I will find something that matches what I want to
work on.
Also note that board needs a special patch. I'm just watching
ther list to see when it is available for opensuse 12.3.
Personally, I wish I got the Panda ES rather than the Beagleboard XM. I would have saved
myself hours of debugging.
The ethernet on the Beagleboard XM runs off an internal usb port. Not the greatest design
since it has to share I/O with the rest of the hub.

I am going to be in England monday & tuesday, so could arrange for one
of two of these sent to my colleagues that I am meeting with. IF this
worth my time. Is there an ethercard addon for it? Preferably 4 ports?
I am not finding any pointers.
