Hi, I recently upgraded my mobile data account and my ISP gave me a Huawei K3765 USB dongle. I immediately went to the Vodafone Betavine forums and from that, the device should work with the lates VMC software. So I installed the latest VMC, but it does not detect the dongle. It seems that the problem is that the USB dongle is not detected as a mobile data device, only as a data storage device (CD-ROM). I understand that the unit should switch to data mode. I tried it on a Windows XP machine and it is working. So, how do I get Linux to see it as a mobile data device, so it will create the /dev/ttyUSB? devices? This is what I get in /var/log/messages when I connect it: --<snip>-- Feb 11 21:48:08 vitalstatistix kernel: [381739.476036] usb 1-5: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4 Feb 11 21:48:08 vitalstatistix kernel: [381739.610893] usb 1-5: New USB device found, idVendor=12d1, idProduct=1520 Feb 11 21:48:08 vitalstatistix kernel: [381739.610908] usb 1-5: New USB device strings: Mfr=3, Product=2, SerialNumber=0 Feb 11 21:48:08 vitalstatistix kernel: [381739.610916] usb 1-5: Product: HUAWEI Mobile Feb 11 21:48:08 vitalstatistix kernel: [381739.610922] usb 1-5: Manufacturer: HUAWEI Technology Feb 11 21:48:08 vitalstatistix kernel: [381739.611084] usb 1-5: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice Feb 11 21:48:08 vitalstatistix kernel: [381739.612473] scsi4 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices Feb 11 21:48:08 vitalstatistix kernel: [381739.612618] usb-storage: device found at 4 Feb 11 21:48:08 vitalstatistix kernel: [381739.612621] usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning Feb 11 21:48:09 vitalstatistix kernel: [381740.613149] scsi 4:0:0:0: CD-ROM Vodafone CD ROM (Huawei) 2.31 PQ: 0 ANSI: 2 Feb 11 21:48:09 vitalstatistix kernel: [381740.617632] sr1: scsi-1 drive Feb 11 21:48:09 vitalstatistix kernel: [381740.617789] sr 4:0:0:0: Attached scsi CD-ROM sr1 Feb 11 21:48:09 vitalstatistix kernel: [381740.617881] sr 4:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg4 type 5 Feb 11 21:48:09 vitalstatistix kernel: [381740.620698] usb-storage: device scan complete Feb 11 21:48:22 vitalstatistix kernel: [381754.112562] ISO 9660 Extensions: Microsoft Joliet Level 1 Feb 11 21:48:23 vitalstatistix kernel: [381754.242686] ISOFS: changing to secondary root Feb 11 21:48:23 vitalstatistix hald: mounted /dev/sr1 on behalf of uid 1000 --<snip>-- -- Andre Truter | Software Consultant | Registered Linux user #185282 Jabber: andre.truter@gmail.com | http://www.trusoft.co.za ~ A dinosaur is a salamander designed to Mil Spec ~ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
