Tambet, With ModemManager will the workarounds have to be done in the code or is there some method that an end-user can drop chat script in to ModemManager? For example I have a Blackberry that I tether using Barry and it has a non-standard method of creating a serial port. I would like to help get this working but I am not much of a developer. Thanks!
