Title:
NetworkManager doesn't correctly probe Novatel XU870
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
Binary package hint: network-manager
Ubuntu release: 9.04, Jaunty
network-manager 0.7.1
linux kernel 2.6.28-17
Broadband mobile card modem: Novatel Merlin XU870
What do I expect to happen? I expect left-clicking the nm-applet panel icon
and seeing the mobile broadband connection I have configured.
What happens instead? I don't see it.
When investigating a little bit, I check that my card is properly
detected by the system, the drivers (option, usbserial) correctly
loaded and the device node (/dev/ttyUSB0) created. I can use the modem
with, for example, pppd, and get online without problems. But
network-manager ignores my card under the excuse that it hasn't probed
mobile broadband capabilities. To be more precise, with the following
messages:
(ttyUSB0): found serial port (udev: hal:GSM)
(ttyUSB0): ignoring due to lack of probed mobile broadband capabilities
(ttyUSB1): ignoring due to lack of mobile broadband capabilities
Which obviously isn't true, as when I manually run "nm-modem-probe --verbose
--export /dev/ttyUSB0", I get:
modem_probe_caps(): GCAP response: +GCAP: +CGSM, +DS
ID_NM_MODEM_GSM=1
ID_NM_MODDM_PROBED=1
main(): /dev/ttyUSB0: caps (0x9) GSM
I've been modifying the /lib/udev/rules.d/77-nm-probemodem-
capabilities.rules as suggested in bug 384344, but to no avail. NM
insists in denying broadband capabilities to my card.
