EVDO Device : AC8700 # lsusb Bus 005 Device 012: ID 05c6:3197 Qualcomm, Inc. CDMA Wireless Modem/Phone # hal-find-by-capability --capability modem /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_5c6_3197_noserial_if0_serial_usb_0 The entry for this modem is there in /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop/10-modem.fdi ----------------------- <!-- BSNL/Qualcomm --> <match key="@info.parent:usb.vendor_id" int="0x5c6"> <!-- ZTE CDMA/EVDO AC8700 usb modem --> <match key="@info.parent:usb.product_id" int="0x3197"> <match key="@info.parent:usb.interface.number" int="0"> <append key="modem.command_sets" type="strlist">IS-707-A</append> </match> </match> -------------------------- However network manager does not show the device when its connected I am able to dial using wvdial. Architecture: i386 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.04 Package: network-manager 0.7.1~rc4.1.cf199a964-0ubuntu2 Uname: Linux 2.6.28-11-generic i686
What driver drives this device? What's the output of 'udevadm info --export-db'? NM 0.7.1 no longer uses HAL for modem detection, it probes the device directly to discover CDMA or GSM capabilities using a udev helper. When you plug in the modem, what do you get in /var/log/daemon.log for NetworkManager log output?
Created attachment 136133 [details] udevadm info
I have attached output of "udevadm info --export-db" daemon.log gives the following Jun 8 14:29:03 binoy-laptop NetworkManager: <info> (ttyUSB0): found serial port (udev: hal:CDMA) Jun 8 14:29:03 binoy-laptop NetworkManager: <info> (ttyUSB0): ignoring due to lack of probed mobile broadband capabilties Jun 8 14:29:03 binoy-laptop NetworkManager: <info> (ttyUSB1): ignoring due to lack of mobile broadband capabilties
Try this: in /lib/udev/rules.d/77-nm-probe-modem-capabilities.rules, look for the line that looks like: DRIVERS=="option|sierra|hso|cdc_acm|qcserial", GOTO="probe" Change that line to add "moto_modem" like so: DRIVERS=="option|sierra|hso|cdc_acm|qcserial|moto_modem", GOTO="probe" and replug the device, and it should work. Let me know. I'll push this change to the 0.7.x branch soon.
moto_modem does not work moto-modem works. Thanks a lot.
