If you can’t see the picture, here is a link to it:


https://13366229192823780453.googlegroups.com/attach/100126185e473c/4B89147B-20D5-40EE-A9BB-C71175811C5E.jpeg?part=0.1=1=ANaJVrECT01L2y8o5GwqdnJROLrBq8aKok0PabHMta-x2aY0Ob1KwhJoE_Snqv2pAtXYHNzEbvoZ7nyYlTG0CRXzUxozMo_uhBFSozVSFPdSHxms06amRS4

I got the “dmesg”-output by logging in to the root account and
use the dom0-terminal. I couldn’t run the command in a dom0
terminal when I logged in as a user.

I got this answer at “www.draisberghof.de
”:

“The cdc_ether driver has bound to your dongle, has created an
eth0 device which immediately got auto renamed to enp0s20f0u10
and this device should be visible under Mobile Broadband in
NetworkManager.
There are 3 required setting in NetworkManager for a Mobile
Broadband connection and they are Country, Provider, APN where
after you will get a connection.
If you don't then it is not a question for this forum,
usb_modeswitch has done what it should do.”

Then the problem seems to be related to either ModemManager,
NetworkManager or Qubes OS as I know the USB modem works.

According to this page (link:

https://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=qubes=true=4.0.3#pkglist
 )
Qubes OS 4.0.3 comes with these packages:

  • ModemManager-glib-1.6.4-1.fc25.x86_64.rpm

  •  NetworkManager-1.4.6-1.fc25.x86_64.rpm
  •  NetworkManager-glib-1.4.6-1.fc25.x86_64.rpm
  •  NetworkManager-libnm-1.4.6-1.fc25.x86_64.rpm
  •  NetworkManager-team-1.4.6-1.fc25.x86_64.rpm
  •  NetworkManager-wifi-1.4.6-1.fc25.x86_64.rpm

The latest version of:
     ModemManager is 1.12.0
     NetworkManager is 1.22.4


Here we are with a basic problem in your understanding of how
Qubes works... ;-)

If you got this dmesg output in a dom0 terminal, this is the
worst place possible this USB stick can show up.

A Qubes system usually has a sys-net VM that gets all network
devices assigned, so they won‘t show up in dom0 and pose a
security risk there, since dom0 controls everything and you
don’t want to give anybody a chance to get into dom0 and take
control of it. That is - by the way - also the reason, why there
is no network connection available in dom0, even in fully
functional systems.

Most Qubes systems also have a sys-usb VM that will get assigned
all the USB controllers to get those away from dom0 as well. To
use any of those assigned devices, the VM having those devices
assigned to must be running.

There is also the possibility to combine sys-usb and sys-net
into one VM. Having an USB-Stick providing a network interface,
this might be a good idea.

Anyway, once you assigned the USB controller :00:14.1 to one
of those VMs, your modem will show up in that VM and not anymore
in dom0. This VM will have a far newer version of Linux running
(i.e. Fedora 30 or Debian 10) than dom0 (Fedora 25 in Qubes
4.0.3) and thus far newer versions of NetworkManager and
ModemManager available than in dom0.

If any of the above is completely over your head, I suggest that
you read some of the Qubes OS documentation before going on,
since the above is the fundamental concept of Qubes...

It says here (link:https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dmesg ) that by
executing the command “dmesg” in the terminal, it returns the content of a
logfile that contains all the messages that is received by the message
buffer of the kernel, and their by contains the messages that the device
drivers produce.

So I guess this alone doesn’t mean that the USB devices are connected to
dom0. Or am I wrong... ?

When I installed Qubes OS 4.0.3, a USB mouse and keyboard was connected to
the pc, and therefore Qubes OS made a sys-net VM to manage both USB devices
and network - if I understand it correctly.

But if I login as a user and execute the command “lsusb” in the dom0
terminal, it list the Huawei device as one of the USB devices. I don’t know
if it shouldn’t be listed here or not. But I have seen that others have
observed the same in Qubes OS. See for example here:

Which terminal did you use to produce the dmesg output you attached? THAT is 
the one you need to use to do the mode switch for your modem. Let’s call the VM 
that this terminal belongs to the ModemVM just for the sake of having a name 
for it in this message.

The modem you have is actually two different USB devices in one. One of them 
presents itself as a storage device. That is the one that is shown in your 
dmesg output. Everything you read there about “HUAWEI Modem” is only coming 
from the device description the kernel finds through the vendor ID (12d1) and 
the product ID (1f01). It never sees it as a modem in a technical sense. Only 
as a storage device.

The usb-modeswitch command some people already have been talking about is what 
you need to tell the modem part of your USB stick to present itself to the 
kernel. That needs to be executed in a terminal of “ModemVM”, since that is the 
VM that actually sees your USB stick.

The usb-switchmode command is nothing Qubes specific. Therefore you can google 
about getting the modem running under the linux distribution that ModemVM is 
using and just follow those instructions in a terminal of ModemVM. Once you 
have done the mode switch, you will probably see more messages in dmesg about 
your “HUAWEI Modem” but this time with a different product ID under which the 
kernel will then identify it as a modem.

Hope that clarified things for you a bit! Especially the part, where the only 
Qubes specific thing about all this is which VM’s terminal to use, to do it all 
in!

What you should try next is stop flailing about, and think about what you
are doing.
Did you post a picture? I cant see it - it would be more helpful if you
provided the actual (relevant) text.

First, read the docs about USB Qubes and USB devices in Qubes.
Identify how USB devices are handled on your machine. Plug in a USB
device (mouse,stick etc), and see how it is handled.
Understand the use of `lsusb` in the sys-usb and `qvm-usb` in dom0.(Hint
- read docs and manpages on these commands - `man lsusb`)

Then plug the modem in to the same USB port you used before.
Use your new found understanding to find out how the device is handled
on insertion.
If the status is changed to a storage device (where?), then search the
web to find out how to change its status to a modem.
Come back here once you've found the solution, or if you need help with
understanding some detail of what you are doing.

It makes it much easier to follow the course of a long thread, and only
takes you seconds to do.

Re: [qubes-users] How to use the USB modem HUAWEI E3372h to connect to the internet in Qubes OS 4.0.3 ?

2020-02-02 Thread Markus Kilås 
You might need to use something like usb_modeswitch if the device is not 
presenting it self as a modem in Linux.

Cheers,
Markus

I really think you should do some work and THEN contact the list, rather
than using the list as a live stream of your work process.
Please keep ONE thread - this one.

Anyway, what you have failed to do so far, (as far as I can see), is to
identify WHERE the modem is attached. Or perhaps you have and I missed
that in the blizzard of posts.
You need to start by identifying the modem in one qube. Try changing the
mode there, and then see if you can  pass it through to sys-net.
Alternatively, use a combined sys-usb and sys-net.
Once you have the device attached to sys-net you will need to do all
configuration there.
So please, step back, take time to identify the device and where it is
attached, and THEN come back to the list with that information.
