Hi all.
I have been facing transient issues in getting the 3G-Modem recognised (via
the appearence of the corresponding icon in the bottom-tray).
There really is no fixed pattern; sometimes the icon appears when the modem
is inserted; sometimes not.
Same is the case when the XO is rebooted,
I have heard from other people who have faced issues that may be
similar at root.
I suggest that you deepen your investigation to determine the reaction
of the kernel, and the ModemManager process, to the insertion of the
device. Compare the reactions between working and non-working
scenarios.

You do not say which OS you are using or whether its Sugar or Gnome desktop.
For most of 13.1.0 the modem dongle has not been appearing in the Sugar frame.
It was fixed at OS11 I think but I have not tested it a lot to see if its
always there in the frame.

Yes, Ajay, it does happen the way you describe so what I do is make sure
that I have the device plugged in before starting the XO otherwise, you
need to restart the XO for it to recognize the device or you need to switch
desktop and upon returning back to Sugar, the device would be recognized.

On the same topic, is anyone experienced with 3G connectivity on XO 1.5?
Will it work? 3 G works fine with 1.75, 12.1, 0.96, Build 21.

Hi,
Has anyone used 12.1, 0.96, Build 21 on XO 1.5 and the second part of the
query is, does a 3G data card work on 1.5? Anyone with experience, please
share.

Ajay, folks,
please indicate OS version, XO model, steps to repro (even if
intermittent), and collect kernel logs so we can see WTH is going on.
Otherwise we can only say maybe and speculate -- good stuff for idle
converstation at a bar, but not productive if you want to see the
problem
Thanks, Jerry.
James, it is a pre-emptive question. This may have to be tried on multiple
XOs so had to be sure before purchasing them. I will update once it is done.
Thanks.

Every device is different, it is impossible to predict the outcome,
unless you are able to identify the exact device and find someone who
has used it.

Yes, that is why I floated the question to see if there were any. Thanks.

But you didn't identify the device.
There are hundreds of different 3G USB devices, with different
circuits, USB ID, firmware, and configuration settings.
http://quozl.linux.org.au/bp3-usb/ was my last foray into this field,
and it has grown more complex since, with more vendors and networks.

Ajay, can you confirm your problem goes away if you turn off

I am downloading os12 for XO-1.75 so that I can update with the

That's nice. Still, I'm interested if turning off automatic power
management solves the problem for you ... with the build you already
have.

Yawn, yup boring unless a sponsor of your deployment is a 3G service
provider, then it becomes a major 'has to work out of the box' from
a business point of view.
Perhaps this service provider can provide technical support?
If it's

I don't think having an end-user with no experience with USB IDs add
an entry to the usb-inhibits file, or having to remember to turn off
a major feature is the correct long term solution IMHO.
