I believe this is because the raspberry pi's Ethernet hardware is connected t=
o the USB bus, so, though the Ethernet interface is on the pcb it really is a=
 USB device.

Richard did some mods to support multiple USB interfaces on the Pi kernel, b=

b have removed most of the time I used to use to investigate such problems.
