Hi,
I have a problem with a Huawaii LTE Stick which comes from German Telekom:
Bus 001 Device 006: ID 12d1:1506 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
For an important LTE test project I need to have this stick working under Ubuntu Lucid where all our apllications are running on.
We have some newer versions for modemmanager and network-manager under Lucid:
ii modemmanager 0.4+git.20101103t150351.a2d54b1-lvm1 D-Bus service for managing modems
ii network-manager 0.8.4-0ubuntu0~lvm0 network management framework daemon
ii network-manager-gnome 0.8.4-0ubuntu0~lvm0 network management framework (GNOME frontend)
The stick comes with a Huawaii software component called HWActivator which gets started by udev. The problem is that modem-manager is not able to deal with this device:
** (modem-manager:1046): DEBUG: (Huawei): (ttyUSB1) deferring support check
** (modem-manager:1046): DEBUG: (Huawei): (ttyUSB2) deferring support check
** (modem-manager:1046): DEBUG: (ttyUSB1): re-checking support...
** (modem-manager:1046): DEBUG: (Huawei): (ttyUSB1) deferring support check
** (modem-manager:1046): DEBUG: (ttyUSB2): re-checking support...
** (modem-manager:1046): DEBUG: (Huawei): (ttyUSB2) deferring support check
** (modem-manager:1046): DEBUG: (ttyUSB1): re-checking support...
** (modem-manager:1046): DEBUG: (Huawei): (ttyUSB1) deferring support check
** (modem-manager:1046): DEBUG: (ttyUSB2): re-checking support...
Doing the same test under Ubuntu Natty (11.04) looks fine. The stick works out of the box and I am able to bring up a LTE connection with network-manager.
So it would be helpful if someone could tell me which commit has fixed this error.
The following comes from syslog:
