Brian - I can't see a major similarity to be honest. The bug you listed is to do with a modem being detected correctly, but simply not being recognised properly past that (see syslog for ttyUSB messages)
In this case the device is being claimed by usb-storage, thus it never gets 'seen' as a modem. The user needs to follow the instructions I have posted to use ozerocdoff (Option provided package with functionality similar to usb_modeswitch) to throw the device into modem mode, and let it be detected by the system as that particular type of device. Then the Option High Speed Driver (HSO) will claim and mount as ttyHSx. The bigger problem is that HSO is broken in Kernels 2.6.31 & 2.6.32, and the working driver under <2.6.31 cannot be compiled on newer kernels. That problem is discussed here - http://www.pharscape.org/forum/index.php/topic,784.0.html -- [karmic] Option iCON 505 3G/HSDPA/UMTS USB modem not recognized https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/450997 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
