The last entries in the attached logs are from one of my rare successful connection attempts. Some of the connection attempts are with another USB modem, supplied by Swedish operator Glocalnet. I have never been able to connect with that modem. Possibly related to bug 462876. I am having a similar problem with the Huawei E220 on Suse 11.1/Gnome, although I have been unable to connect at all via networkmanager. If I use kinternet or wvdial with the modem it works fine. I have tried NetworkManager both 0.7.0.r4323-1.13 and 0.7.0.r4359-2.1 without success. Could you please try with the following package http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/706062/ModemManager-0.1_20081203-6.i586.rpm After installing it, run 'sudo killall modem-manager' to kill the previous version, NetworkManager will automatically restart the new version and try to connect. Sorry, I don't have have access to that modem any more. I'm sorry too ... I also no longer have the modem! I have the device. The new modemmanager-rpm doesn't change anything. Whoops, killing the process alone didn't do it, it needed a reboot. And now it works! Thanks! Unfortunately the reboot seems mandatory to get it to work. I have to plug the stick in while running the system, then reboot. It doesn't work if I simply start the netbook with the stick plugged in. It won't connect if I don't follow the procedure 'plug-in--reboot'. Christian, It's a long time, how about in 11.3? Thanks! Noresponse. |
