Peter Schüller, if this is confirmed with the latest mainline kernel (now 5.0.2), then the issue you are reporting is an upstream one. Could you please report this problem following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/kernel to the appropriate mailing list (TO linux-usb CC Greg Kroah-Hartman)?
This article was written for folks who don't know anything about linux, so it's easy to follow. Please provide a direct URL to your post to the mailing list when it becomes available so that it may be tracked. Thank you for your help. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1819362 Title: HUAWEI E3531 HSPA+ USB Stick "please report the device ID to the Linux USB developers" Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: I have a HUAWEI E3531 HSPA+ USB Stick When I plug it in, journalctl shows me Mär 10 19:21:20 pshp usb_modeswitch[3556]: usb_modeswitch: switched to 12d1:14dc on 1/9 Mär 10 19:21:20 pshp kernel: scsi 1:0:0:0: Direct-Access HUAWEI TF CARD Storage 2.31 PQ: 0 ANSI: 2 Mär 10 19:21:20 pshp kernel: sd 1:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg0 type 0 Mär 10 19:21:20 pshp kernel: sd 1:0:0:0: [sda] Attached SCSI removable disk Mär 10 19:21:21 pshp usb_modeswitch_dispatcher[3556]: Unable to open bind list file: No such file or directory Mär 10 19:21:21 pshp usb_modeswitch[3556]: usb_modeswitch: add device ID 12d1:14dc to driver option Mär 10 19:21:21 pshp usb_modeswitch[3556]: usb_modeswitch: please report the device ID to the Linux USB developers!
