Hi, can confirm this after upgrading from karmic to lucid on a thinkpad notebook. No root shell open. Trying to connect to klarmobil (German broadband cell provider, actually on the o2 net) with their umts-usb adapter through network-manager. The adapter is a 1c9e:f000 W14 stick.
usb_modeswitch seems to work fine, there is a PIN handshake working up to the GUI and back. Then pppd stops with a pppd_timed_out, same as Rolf's post above. Checking auth.log reveals the org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod problem. Fix: replaced the /etc/dbus-1/system.d/NetworkManager.conf with a fresh copy manually extracted from the nm deb package. Maybe re-installing through synaptic might work as well, did not check.Rebooted, and broadband connects right away :) Maybe that works for others as well... -- MASTER PPP connect fails if root is @console with pppd_timed_out() - (NetworkManager does not connect to Mobile Broadband anymore in Jaunty (Sierra AC880)) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/371291 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
