Is anyone successfully using a UMTS data stick with 12.2 (or Factory or 12.1 with kernel 3.4 or later for that matter)?
I always get
pppd[7116]: unrecognized option 'wwan0'
since that is what NetworkManager now passes to pppd instead of ttyUSBX and failed to find a way to change that on the user side.
Attached is the, ahem, creative workaround I devised to track this down and get online this weekend; https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=776520 has details
Is this just me, or will this hit everyone/most/many with a UMTS data stick?

under 12.1 i wasn't using networkmanager at all, but connected via kppp, after detecting & switching the device using sakis3g. that involed editing scripts under /etc/ppp and took me a while to get right. since 12.2 (12.3 now) i'm using networkmanager (KDE4 plasma applet), and it works surprisingly well. i never got any errors from pppd, no unrecognized options or such. perhaps it would help to clear out all previous configurations? -- phani. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
