Sorry there were some typos there. Versions tested are 1.6.10 (as delivered by RHEL) and 1.16.14 (custom build) with libqmi 1.18.0. I'll look into going up to MM 1.10 and libqmi 1.22 without bringing up a lot of other system dependencies. > > Hard to say what the issue is, but you're really using somewhat old versions. > Any chance you can upgrade them to MM 1.10.0 and libqmi 1.22.2?

Restart is usually OK because it's an all-in-one action. I can try and tee up a system cron job to 'start' MM if it's missing in action (actually that wouldn't be a bad idea in any event...) but it's not there yet. There's usually a pretty good delay before MM notices qmi-proxy is gone. If I killed MM's spawn of qmi-proxy and then `systemctl restart`ed ModemManager would the new instance of qmi-proxy get left alone? > > -- > Aleksander > https://aleksander.es This message w/attachments (message) is intended solely for the use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain information that is privileged, confidential or proprietary.
