This does not look like a kernel bug. The driver loads and pppd connects and authenticates, then NM kills it: Apr 20 10:10:18 localhost pppd[2946]: Plugin /usr/lib/pppd/2.4.4/nm-pppd-plugin.so loaded. Apr 20 10:10:18 localhost pppd[2946]: pppd 2.4.4 started by root, uid 0 Apr 20 10:10:18 localhost NetworkManager: <info> Activation (ttyUSB0) Stage 2 of 5 (Device Configure) complete. Apr 20 10:10:18 localhost pppd[2946]: Using interface ppp0 Apr 20 10:10:18 localhost pppd[2946]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyUSB0 Apr 20 10:10:18 localhost NetworkManager: <info> (ttyUSB0): device state change: 5 -> 6 Apr 20 10:10:18 localhost pppd[2946]: CHAP authentication succeeded Apr 20 10:10:18 localhost pppd[2946]: CHAP authentication succeeded Apr 20 10:10:18 localhost NetworkManager: <info> (ttyUSB0): device state change: 6 -> 7 Apr 20 10:10:34 localhost NetworkManager: <WARN> pppd_timed_out(): Looks like pppd didn't initialize our dbus module Apr 20 10:10:34 localhost NetworkManager: <info> (ttyUSB0): device state change: 7 -> 9 Apr 20 10:10:34 localhost pppd[2946]: Terminating on signal 15 Apr 20 10:10:34 localhost NetworkManager: <info> Marking connection 'Auto Mobile Broadband (GSM) connection' invalid. Apr 20 10:10:34 localhost NetworkManager: <info> Activation (ttyUSB0) failed. Apr 20 10:10:34 localhost NetworkManager: <info> (ttyUSB0): device state change: 9 -> 3 Apr 20 10:10:34 localhost NetworkManager: <info> (ttyUSB0): deactivating device (reason: 0). Thanks for filling this bug. Can you please provide your current NetworkManager version you are using (rpm -q NetworkManager)? -- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers Reporter, can you, as root: /sbin/service NetworkManager stop NM_SERIAL_DEBUG=1 NM_PPP_DEBUG=1 /usr/sbin/NetworkManager --no-daemon then try to connect with the modem. When that fails, please attach the log output from NetworkManager so we can figure out what's going wrong here. I apologize, but I no longer have this hardware in my possession. I had to give it back today. Is there any other information I could provide sans hardware that could be helpful? By the way, I think this bug is related to the same hardware: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=496426 This bug shouldn't be related to 496426; that's a problem with even getting the modem initialized. You might try entering a fake username and password in the connection editor for your modem. Some modems require that. Close as insufficient_information? This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 11 development cycle. Changing version to '11'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping The information we've requested above is required in order to review this problem report further and diagnose or fix the issue if it is still present. Since it has been thirty days or more since we first requested additional information, we're assuming the problem is either no longer present in the current Fedora release, or that there is no longer any interest in tracking the problem. Setting status to "CLOSED: INSUFFICIENT_DATA". If you still experience this problem after updating to our latest Fedora release and can provide the information previously requested, please feel free to reopen the bug report. -- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers |
