[opensuse] Huawei E1552 GSM modem on OS13.2
Hi, I'm trying to use my usb-gsm-modem. lsusb : Bus 002 Device 003: ID 12d1:1446 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. E1552/E1800/E173 (HSPA modem) On OS 13.1 I had to use usb_modeswitch. I could plug in the modem, and Networkmanager added it to the list of network-devices. On OS13.2, journalctl shows a storage device is added when I plug in the modem. I added a "mobile broadband" entry in the connection manager. usb_modeswitch seems not to work. This is the output : usb_modeswitch -v 12d1 -p 1446 -V 12d1 -P 1001 Look for target devices ... No devices in target mode or class found Look for default devices ... product ID matched Found devices in default mode (1) Access device 003 on bus 002 Current configuration number is 1 Use interface number 0 USB description data (for identification) ------------------------- Manufacturer: HUAWEI Technology Product: HUAWEI Mobile Serial No.: not provided ------------------------- Warning: no switching method given. See documentation -> Run lsusb to note any changes. Bye! I followed http://www.blah-blah.ch/it/how-to-s/install-a-huawei-e1762-on-gentoo/ but after configuring usb_modeswitch.conf and running usb_modeswitch -v 0x12d1 -p 0x1446 -H -s 5 -c /etc/usb_modeswitch.conf lsusb shows nothing different, although the output of usb_modeswitch indicates there is a change. Any help ? P.S. how can I "simulate" a "tail -f /var/log/messages" ? I know journalctl can display something like it, but I would like to see it in "real-time". Thanks, Koenraad. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Only for the joutnalctl question I can give an answer: "man 1 journalctl" shows the option "--follow" or short "-f" just for that kind of use, best combine with "--no-pager". - Yamaban. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Thanks, I should remember to use the man-pages more often. Koenraad. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

usb_modeswitch seems not to work. This is the output :
Huawei modems are known not to work on oS 13.2, c.f. this bug report[1].

There's a link "Download package" on the right. He might need to download both usb_modeswitch and usb_modeswitch-data. -- Regards, Peter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Yes indeed, the package refuses to install because usb_modeswitch-data is not found. I downloaded this and will try ASAP. Thanks all. Koenraad. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
