Re: 3G dongle getting detected as USB disk on Fedora 18
Alright, I learned about usb_modeswitch and usb_modeswitch_data and after hell lot of poking with libusb and friends, got some inspiration. But, then again.

Re: 3G dongle getting detected as USB disk on Fedora 18
I know man but I cannot update. Because I have to stick to the policies laid down by the internal IT team. Nice comparisons you provided though ;) I will go over the links pretty soon. On another note, this looks like a pretty mundane problem, right. I mustn't b the first guy to hit this.
