I have one SonyEricsson M600i, one Nokia N95 and one Nokia E71; all three of them show the same issues. When I connect the phone* to either my 11.0 or 11.1 machine I get the following in /var/log/messages: Oct 9 10:59:27 fveult05 kernel: hub 2-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 4 Oct 9 10:59:27 fveult05 kernel: usb 3-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 Oct 9 10:59:28 fveult05 kernel: usb 3-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice Oct 9 10:59:28 fveult05 kernel: usb 3-2: New USB device found, idVendor=0421, idProduct=00ab Oct 9 10:59:28 fveult05 kernel: usb 3-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0 Oct 9 10:59:28 fveult05 kernel: usb 3-2: Product: Nokia E71 Oct 9 10:59:28 fveult05 kernel: usb 3-2: Manufacturer: Nokia Oct 9 10:59:29 fveult05 kernel: cdc_acm 3-2:1.10: ttyACM0: USB ACM device Oct 9 10:59:29 fveult05 kernel: usbcore: registered new interface driver cdc_acm Oct 9 10:59:29 fveult05 kernel:drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.c: v0.25:USB Abstract Control Model driver for USB modems and ISDN adapters Oct 9 10:59:29 fveult05 kernel: usbcore: registered new interface driver cdc_ether Oct 9 10:59:29 fveult05 kernel: usb 3-2: bad CDC descriptors Oct 9 10:59:29 fveult05 kernel: usbcore: registered new interface driver rndis_host Oct 9 10:59:29 fveult05 kernel: usb 3-2: bad CDC descriptors Oct 9 10:59:29 fveult05 kernel: usbcore: registered new interface driver rndis_wlan If I look at dmesg it shows pretty much the same (funnily enough): hub 2-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 4 usb 3-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 usb 3-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice usb 3-2: New USB device found, idVendor=0421, idProduct=00ab usb 3-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0 usb 3-2: Product: Nokia E71 usb 3-2: Manufacturer: Nokia cdc_acm 3-2:1.10: ttyACM0: USB ACM device usbcore: registered new interface driver cdc_acm drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.c: v0.25:USB Abstract Control Model driver for USB modems and ISDN adapters usbcore: registered new interface driver cdc_ether usb 3-2: bad CDC descriptors usbcore: registered new interface driver rndis_host usb 3-2: bad CDC descriptors usbcore: registered new interface driver rndis_wlan The issue with this is that I am unable to use my phone as a USB modem in conjunction with NetworkManager, either in KDE or GNOME. Is there anything that can be done, and is it worth filing a bug? As Nokia use Symbian pretty much exclusively to power their handsets and they have 40% of the market globally I personally would like to see us support their use :) I think this could well be an upstream issue as I tried to connect the phones to a ForesightLinux machine with pretty much the same issues. *These were taken from connecting my E71, but the output is almost identical with the others. If the phones are used in the "Mass Storage" mode, then there are no issues and I can browse the phones as if they were USB keys. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

In my case, I do not have a printer so the page displayed juste says Printer Setup or something like that with some text below like 'Finish printer configuration' The issue that that the progress bar at the botom still show that some stuff are being downloaded and installed. Could a clean page be added after the printer setup to not confused the user so download and installed all parts needed at the end of the hardware setup? No bug issue but could improve the setup experience. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

VNC installation crashes right after connection of the VNC client. The VNC client is asked for a password and right after the password is entered the installation crashes with "An error occurred during the installation" message. y2logs attached. Unfortunately I don't know how to debug this better so if you need more logs please let me know. I think this one may be easy to reproduce. Attached are 2 screenshots from the text console (from KVM). This host doesn't have serial port thus I'm unable to attach the whole output. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Bug 370872] New: "pccardctl eject" hangs in state D

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=370872 Summary: "pccardctl eject" hangs in state D Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Alpha 2plus Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: kernel-maintainers(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: seife(a)novell.com QAContact: qa(a)suse.de CC: fseidel(a)novell.com Found By: Development During suspend, one thing we do is eject PCMCIA card with "pccardctl eject". I quite frequently see that command hanging in state D, which makes suspend fail. Attempting to shut down the machine cleanly lead to a hang when the sound modules are unloaded, a clean shutdown does only happen if i do a sysrq-e to kill the hanging processes and make init proceed. I have seen this with various 3G/UMTS CardBus cards, both USB-serial based and nozomi based, so i believe this to be a generic PCMCIA issue.
