I just installed 9.10 and then performed a distribution upgrade to 10.04 my only internet access being an E620 modem.
The Modem is recognised in Karmic allowing the packages for the upgrade to be installed. However at some point in the upgrade the modem is only recognised as a mass storage device. meaning when I reboot I have no internet connection. However having been through this before I have usb-modeswitch-data_20100127-1_all.deb usb-modeswitch_1.1.0-2_i386.deb both stored on the mini sd card in the modem. using gdebi I install them ignoring the warning about both packages being available in a software channel as I plainly can't connect to the afore mentioned channel due to both of these packages not being installed as part of the upgrade. reinserting the device the mode change is performed and the connection which was configured in karmic connects allowing me to make this comment. Obviously the upgrade script needs modifying to include the download and installation of these 2 files. something which I thought had been established prior to the release of Lucid in early April it is rather disappointing that in mid August this still hasn't happened. -- usb-modeswitch should be included by default on Lucid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/521578 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
