Comment 352 for bug 446146

Not only Vodafone Mobile Connect, but now Alice Modem Manager (a branded version of Huawei's software) is no longer able to connect. I still need it to switch the key into modem mode (from productId 1446 to 140C), but then have to dial using Kppp, and lose the connection management features.
So, now the situation is half broken either way; without the modem manager, the modem isn't switched into the "proper" mode, neither usb_modeswitch or modem_modeswitc work; with the modem manager installed, I now have to switch to kpp to dial, after the update to kernel 2.6.31-16
