These are exactly the symptoms I am experiencing. I upgraded to 2.6.31-14 #48 to work around bug #406312. After the update, my modem would continuously reset.
As part of my testing, I blacklisted the option module. The modem still resets, and this is the log that always precedes the reset: [ 228.378573] sr1: CDROM (ioctl) error, command: Get configuration 46 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 20 00 I did experience this problem before, when the E220 first came on the market. It was caused by hald firing off an application that probed the virtual CDROM device. I worked around it initially by adding a blacklist to the hald rules (which I see is included in the default rules now, and in the installed Ubuntu, so it is not the problem now). Since the device is still blacklisted, I have no idea where the probe is coming from now. I am also not sure why the kernel issues a device reset when the ioctl generates an error, but I think this is wrong. There was also a patch at some stage that prevented usbstorage from detecting the Huawei device, which also solved the problem. For now, the only way I have network access is to revert to the 2.6.31.11 kernel, and use usbserial, instead of the option driver. -- Oops randomly with Huawei E220 3G dongle (regression) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/430011 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
