2 days ago i and Jose Javier Garcia (Electrical enginner of Signaletics) had installed the contiki os in the Atmel’s Raven Plaftorm.
All of the atmel firmware was OK but we couldn’t test the ping6 service because the RAVEN USB stick not working as expected in Windows Vista.
Vista can’t recognise the USB Stick as RNDIS hardware. Vista recognise the stick as a USB memory stick of 56 kilobytes.
In the docs of contiki said that it’s need make some modification in the INF files, but there is explained what’s changes are.
I am asking this question in the contiki os developer mailist and i expect have a solution in the next 2 days.

Thanks to Colin O’Flynn from newea.com to tell me the solution:
Hi,
It does work on Vista, though I’m not 100% sure of the changes needed.
You will need to stop the Jackdaw (USB stick) from going into the mass storage mode, you need it to stay in Network mode. See http://www.sics.se/%7Eadam/contiki/docs-uipv6/a01108.html#hardwareforce for how to do that.
Dak664 on AVRFreaks.net got it to work on Vista – see http://www.avrfreaks.net/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=70112 for a few details.
