I must confess I have no idea what you mean.  How does one "blacklist 
CDCEther"?

I had to patch the RH kernel and compile the module.  I think there was 
some minor editing of a conf file to enable usbdnet.  I can connect fine, 
but if I take the Z out of the cradle for a few hours, when I put it back 
and turn it on I get a connection, followed by a very hard crash of both 
my desktop and the Z.

Are you using the Sharp rom, or OpenZaurus?

Could you send me a copy of your usbdnet module?

Thanks,

Michael
