thanks for the info... but it didn't work as planned for me! when i do fdisk -l, it isn't there...
if i do dmesg |tail i see a possibility for it, it says:
usb.c usb device 2 (vend/prob 0x917/0x206) is not claimed by any active driver)

this means that there is no driver for the device? how do i install one?

i'm actually trying to install a realtek network driver, so if anyone can tell me how do that it would be a great help! it is rtl8139d...

thanks
