Fedora :: Broadband Script / "sudo Usb_modeswitch" And "lsusb"?
Nov 6, 2009
I some time use LAN and sometime mobile broadband connection for connecting to internet.Now, while connecting vi mobile broadband(MB from now), I always have to do a usb_modeswitch.Is it possible to automatize? i.e. when it detect the MB, it will automatically run commands"sudo usb_modeswitch" and "lsusb"? Running via command is trivial, but I want something that it will detect the MB usb while it is plugged in and run.

I am using tata indicom photon+ for mobile broadband internet connection.
Code:
Befor yesterday, I was able to connect via this, but today(i guess a update yesterday is the culprit) i cannot. while it should connect automatically, even usb_modeswitch cannot detect anything.
Quote:
my /etc/modeprobe.conf is also blank. But I can work with wireless

I have installed fedora core 11 in my computer, I'm using a prolink phs 100 3g usb modem to connect to the internet in windows.while trying to get it working under linux I found a usb mode switching program at [URL] , I downloaded the source for the mode switching program and also downloaded and installed libusb.but when I try to run make (as mentioned in the draisberghof website) I get the following error.
Code:
[bushcat@localhost usb-modeswitch-1.1.2]$ make
gcc -o usb_modeswitch usb_modeswitch.c -Wall -l usb
usb_modeswitch.c:66:17: error: usb.h: No such file or directory
[code]...
If i'm not mistaken I think the main reason for this is that the compiler can't find the "usb.h" file, which is obvious from the third line of code.

I am planning to shift from ubuntu to fedora and i am using Data card for getting connected to internet. My data card is working fine with Ubuntu 10.04.
I have been using usbmodeswitch to make the device to be reconized as a modem rather that a storage devices in ubuntu 10.04. i have followed this link : [url] and it worked fine now when i repeated the same for fedora 13 it doesn't works.
I have installed tcl-8.5.8-1.fc13.i686.rpm , usb_modeswitch-1.1.4-1.fc13.i686 , usb_modeswitch-data-20100707-1.fc13.noarch and wvdial. in fedora 13 it never detected as a modem. i have also tryed using # modprobe usbserial vendor=0x1c9e product=0x9e00 also but this never helped.

A day ago I finally got around to upgrading the PackageKit installation that had been sitting for a week and a half, so I found a new upgrade for sudo available - the one that gives the sudoreplay command, I forget which version number it is exactly. When I try to use the sudo command I get this notice in my terminal:Code:Can't open /var/db/sudo/me/1: Permission deniedI didn't get it before. What do I have to do to make it open? I'm using SELinux in enforcing mode if that helps.

I am new to fedora (been using debian based distro's for the longest time). With the new release I decided to give FC13 (The kde 64 bit spin) a try. I told it to wipe my entire hdd and encrypt the partitions. The partition manager made a few LVM partitions which I assume are encrypted.
The problem I am having is that if I attempt to use an application that would normally need root access to run, I am not prompted to enter my root password. Instead, I am required to logout and log back in as root. Is there a way to make it so that FC13 will prompt me to enter in my root password so I do not need to log in and out? Or is there something Different I should have done during the install process? Also, what is the terminal equivalent of "sudo" in fedora, or is it still sudo/KDEsudo
I also have not used SE Linux before. Do I need to manually enforce the permissions for my applications and generate my own profiles for it, or is that done automatically?

I just upgraded from 11.2 to 11.3 and compiled kernel 2.6.36. In 11.2/2.6.35 pulseaudio/padevchooser was working fine. Now I'm getting boot errors indicating that hso-udev.rules has a problem that will be important in a future release related to SYSFS{} stuff that should be ATTRS{} stuff. Other reading seems to indicate that my problem is that I have both avahi zeroconf and usb_modeswitch running. However usb_modeswitch is perhaps a replacement for zeroconf.
So I disable zeroconf. Now padevchooser cannot run since it needs zeroconf. Immediate action for me is to put zeroconf back in place and ignore the errors, then my system is working again. Long term action is now the issue. Anybody been down this route before? Whose action comes next? Possibly PA will be switching over to usb_modeswitch for zeroconf functionality? Or is there an OpenSuse config change coming?

I am having a problem getting my Vodafone PAYG Huawei K3565 Rev 2 mobile broadband to be recognised and/or connect in 9.10
[URL]
The advice is to add
[URL]
to the apt sources. (replacing cz as required for several other servers of choice). I tried this (using several different servers) from within Ubuntu Software Centre, but the usb_modeswitch never appeared. In fact (oddly) the source never appeared in the list! (Although I did have a look in the etc/apt/sources.list and it had added a line each time - there were several - I'd tried quite a few!!!) I did try downloading it but when it starts gdebi to install, a message pops up saying it is available (and better supported!) in a software channel.
I searched round a bit and found another reference to the package at
[URL]
This time the sources were totally different and the apt line recommended was
deb [URL]
When I add this it does add the line to the list of sources, but sadly I still cannot see usb_modeswitch after Software Centre has updated. In fact the number of packages available seems to go down from 2186 to 2179!
I suppose I could force the debian package to install, but I don't see why I can't get it to appear in Software Centre!
I should perhaps add that I have added other sources using the "apt sources" and that worked OK so I know I am doing the right thing.

I had a Huawei e1752c O2 Mobile Broadband dongle working fine in Ubuntu 9.04 using usb_modeswitch, with settings taken from After renewing an annual O2 contract, I have a new e1752c and it does not work in Ubuntu 9.04, even after installing the latest usb_modeswitch package and data. The new dongle does work perfectly on an identical laptop that has Ubuntu 10.04 with a freshly installed Network Manager and usb_modeswitch.I am guessing that there is a rule (udev or whatever) hanging over from somewhere that needs deleting, but I don't know where to look, and don't see any useful error messages - the device lists as Vendor 12d1, Product 1446 before and after usb_modeswitch runs, but becomes Product 140c in the Ubuntu 10.04 system.

I've been having some trouble getting my two external USB hard drives to mount on boot. They are not recognized by lsusb after a boot, but after they are power cycled or unplugged & replugged they will show up in lsusb and mount. One odd thing I noticed was that when one of the drives was moved to a different port before booting it would be recognized for that boot onlyI have tried adding usb_storage to /etc/modules and doing a update-initramfs to my kernel (2.6.31-14) to no avail.
Since I started having this problem, I have reinstalled ubuntu on a different internal drive, and this did not fix it.I'm not sure if this matters, but the UUIDs of the two drives are identical. I would try reformatting one of them but its quite inconvenient. My /etc/fstab is set up to mount them using their labels (ex1 and ex2) rather than the UUID, and I can mount them both at the same time

I have been administering linux systems for years now, but usually they are commodity boxes and as a result I rarely have driver problems, short of needing to install some "restricted" or "proprietary" driver package, or manually installing the nvidia binary drivers back in the day. However, one question to which I have never picked up a straight answer regards common troubleshooting practice. Will lsusb and lspci list device for which a system has no drivers (kernel modules)? I am trying to install a webcam on a SiS-chipset laptop and though I can see a physical webcam, neither lsusb or lspci are showing me that any webcam-like device exists. What I want to know is if it would show anything, or if it needs drivers in order to show a device?

I'm really trying to get the Elgato Eye TV Diversity working with Ubuntu (I'm trying it on both Karmic and Hardy)
The problem is, lsusb shows the device but I don't get a vendor name, just an ID.
dmesg shows a usb device being detected, but not that it's a TV tuner.
I've followed the guides on these pages:url

P.S (I know some of the guides are for the hauppauge nova, but this is the same device as far as I can tell)

I plug in my Maxtor 1TB external USB drive, and here's what dmesg says:
Code:
[ 82.480054] usb 3-2: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 7
[ 82.660052] usb 3-2: device descriptor read/64, error -62
[ 82.950076] usb 3-2: device descriptor read/64, error -62[code]...
lsusb produces no results, and "fdisk -l" yields nothing as well.The drive is not recognised as /dev/sdb1 as it was until yesterday.

When I connect my Treo 650 with a USB cable it works sometimes and not others. A little investigation showed
that it always works when I see the Palm device listed in the output of lsusb. While trying to diagnose why it appears sometimes and not others, I discovered that it sometimes appears in /proc/bus/usb/devices and not
in lsusb. I didn't think that was possible!
I've tried running kudzu (the Red Hat hardware discovery tool) and killing and restarting udevd.

I can get the command program to work, but not the desktop program to work. Windows Wireless Driver was working, but now every time I try to start it, it won't load, and will just be an empty window. This happened after I tried to installed a driver (which was the wrong one), and I restarted the computer. After this happened, I tried to reinstall the program, but to no avail.
The command program works, but I can't use the command lsusb, because it just pauses and doesn't do anything. Do I have to wait for it to kick in. I'm pretty sure that this is not it, because when I try the lspci, this works fine (but it's not the one I need). Please help, and don't make any stupid replies.

explain the difference between these two commands. I'm currently reading about changing your mac address and both of these commands show up a lot. They sound like the same thing to me. Is one better than the other, or do you need to use both to change your mac address?
Code:
sudo ifconfig eth0 down
sudo /etc/init.d/networking stop

In the previous versions of Fedora, the check for updates when connected through mobile broadband appeared disabled, which made sense as I don't want updates when connected through a mobile phone but will wait until I'm connected through either ethernet or wifi.
Took my laptop into work on Friiday (9am Friday is the time concert tickets go onsale). Connected to mobile broadband using Fedora 14 and got the updates available icon, surely this shouldn't happen?

I couldn't connect my Micromax 300G modem in Debian Linux. From internet (in Windows Vista), I came across the information of USB_ModeSwitch and then I downloaded it. While going to install it, I came across the problem that TCL-interpreter is not available in Debian Linux. Then again I restarted my laptop in Windows Vista and connected my Micromax modem and from internet downloaded TCL8.5.10-src.tar.gz. But while going to install it, I came across the problem that " configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH " . Also as presently, I am unable to connect my modem therefore I am unable to issue the code:" apt-get update ".
