Bug Description

Huawei E1692 doesn't work anymore with Ubuntu Karmic Koala alpha versions. It has to be mode switched, which is done, and dmesg shows this:
[ 428.884052] usb 1-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 5
[ 429.027387] usb 1-4: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice

[ 429.087015] usbcore: registered new interface driver option
[ 429.087018] option: v0.7.2:USB Driver for GSM modems

But NetworkManager is silent, and it's debug shows classic messages for Ethernet connections. I can't connect to Internet using Network Manager, creating profile for my mobile provider and choosing it from menu. It seems not to recognise USB class and model:
Bus 001 Device 007: ID 12d1:1001 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. E620 USB Modem

This modem works nicely in Jaunty.

One that would help, is if you could run the command:

% apport-collect 412362

This will collect network-manager specific debug information and attach it to the bug.

In general, reporting bugs via 'ubuntu-bug <package-name>' instead of directly via Launchpad is preferable, as it will automatically run apport-* and collect the debug information.

Thanks!

It is already fixed.

Seemingly when I installed Alpha3 modemmanager wasn't added to ubuntu-desktop task and therefore no modem fun for me in NetworkManager. Installed it and everything works now like a charm.

Changed in network-manager (Ubuntu):
