Hi
This is continuation to a variety of mails to help setup a BSNL CDMA
(fixed wireless phone)
my issue is with Huawei ETS 2288 (BSNL) on Ubuntu 8.10
To clarify - this machine works well uptill 7.10 from 8.04 onwards
somethings got changed and whatever has been suggested on this list
has not helped to make this device work.
So what has been done till date
r...@ram-laptop:~$ sudo dmesg -c
[ 1641.900163] usb 4-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2
[ 1642.092233] usb 4-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
[ 1642.264674] usbcore: registered new interface driver usbserial

[ 1642.274220] usbserial: USB Serial support registered for TI USB
5052 2 port adapter
[ 1642.274269] ti_usb_3410_5052 4-1:1.0: TI USB 3410 1 port adapter
converter detected
[ 1642.274280] firmware: requesting ti_usb-3410.bin
First found the device details
device product and vendor id extracted via lsusb -v
idVendor 0x0451 Texas Instruments, Inc.
idProduct 0x3410 TUSB3410 Microcontroller
Second checked in dmesg what the message was when i connected to
~$ sudo modprobe usbserial vendor=0x0451 product=0x3410
Third Setup wvdial
[Modem0]
Modem = /dev/ttyUSB0
Baud = 115200
SetVolume = 0
Dial Command = ATDT
Init1 = ATZ
FlowControl = Hardware (CRTSCTS)
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
# Init3 = at+crm=1;+cmux=1;+cps=33;+cta=0
Modem Type = Analog Modem
Baud = 115200
New PPPD = yes
Modem = /dev/ttyUSB0
Idle Seconds = 90
Auto Reconnect = off
[Dialer 92]
Modem = /dev/ttyUSB0
Baud = 230400
Phone = #777
Init1 = ATZ
Stupid Mode = 1
Dial Command = ATDT
Username = f00 f0ne
Password = f00 f0ne
PPPD Options = crtcts multilink usepeerdns lock defaultroute
# Inherits = Modem0
Fourth Tried wvdial and got this error message
~$ sudo wvdial 92
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.60
--> Cannot open /dev/ttyUSB0: No such file or directory
--> Cannot open /dev/ttyUSB0: No such file or directory
--> Cannot open /dev/ttyUSB0: No such file or directory
Then tried the options given by Moz and Onkar
1 Made a file called
:~$ sudo gedit /etc/rc.local
Added the following lines (without the -S and the path to the password file)
sudo modprobe usbserial vendor=0x0451 product=0x3410
sudo mknod /dev/ttyUSB0 c 188 0
sudo mknod /dev/ttyUSB1 c 188 1
exit 0
2. Also went to
~$ cd /etc/modprobe.d/
r...@ram-laptop:/etc/modprobe.d$
made a file
$ sudo gedit usbserial
# Onkar's Suggestion for modprobe 26 March 09
modprobe usbserial vendor=0x0451 product=0x3410
**
Needless say i got the same error message
--> Cannot open /dev/ttyUSB0: No such file or directory
Then checked to see if there was a file called /dev/ttyUSB0
this is the result
-$ls /dev/ttyu*
/dev/ttyu0 /dev/ttyu3 /dev/ttyu6 /dev/ttyu9 /dev/ttyuc /dev/ttyuf
/dev/ttyu1 /dev/ttyu4 /dev/ttyu7 /dev/ttyua /dev/ttyud
/dev/ttyu2 /dev/ttyu5 /dev/ttyu8 /dev/ttyub /dev/ttyue
So no ttyUSB0 or 1
While setting up in 7.10 the following are the things done
dmesg
the lines below are dmesg output from 7.10 (note the difference)
#kr# error message that i get
[ 646.188000] ti_usb_3410_5052 2-1:1.0: TI USB 3410 1 port adapter
converter detected
[ 646.188000] ti_usb_3410_5052: probe of 2-1:1.0 failed with error -5
[ 646.188000] usb 2-1: device_add(2-1:1.0) --> -5
after which a rules file is setup
Now we have to make one rule file in
/etc/udev/rules.d/026_ti_usb_3410.rules . with the following lines
#TI USB 3410
SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device" ACTION=="add"
SYSFS{idVendor}=="0451",SYSFS{idProduct}=="3410" \
SYSFS{bNumConfigurations}=="2" \
SYSFS{bConfigurationValue}=="1" \
RUN+="/bin/sh -c 'echo 2 > /sys%p/device/bConfigurationValue'"
after which when dmesg is queried we get
dmesg
ti_usb_3410_5052 1-2:2.0: TI USB 3410 1 port adapter converter detected
[ 2081.240000] usb 1-2: TI USB 3410 1 port adapter converter now
attached to ttyUSB0
[ 2081.356000] ti_usb_3410_5052_1 ttyUSB0: TI USB 3410 1 port adapter
converter now disconnected from ttyUSB0
[ 2081.356000] ti_usb_3410_5052 1-2:2.0: device disconnected
[ 2081.364000] ti_usb_3410_5052 1-2:2.0: TI USB 3410 1 port adapter
converter detected
[ 2081.364000] usb 1-2: TI USB 3410 1 port adapter converter now
attached to ttyUSB0
and then the device works well.
***
So the question is what is this
[ 1642.274280] firmware: requesting ti_usb-3410.bin
and why am i getting the /dev/ttyUSB0 error
Since there are many devices being setup would like to know if anyone
has got this device ets2288 working on Ubuntu 8.04 or 8.10
Finally a query to those who understand Ubuntu/Linux development -
what could have been changed so that a device that worked (or was
workable ) in 7.10 becomes unworkable in later editions, specifically
this cdma device.
So what advice,
thanks
