Kevin, Can you get dmesg and lsusb output from 2.6.30 when the device is working, as well as when the device is failed? I'm curious to find out if the system completely forgets the device is there or if the device is detected, but for some reason unable to be contacted. Additionally, rfkill http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/rfkill.txt was suggested as a reason the transmitter does not work. I will try to find out how to verify that and undo anything it may have done and follow up with you here in a couple of days. But again, if you could provide a txt file with: dmesg from 2.6.30 while working AND dmesg and lsusb from 2.6.30 while not working We would appreciate it.

(In reply to comment #1) > Can you get dmesg and lsusb output from 2.6.30 when the device is working, as > well as when the device is failed? See attachments. In addition, I've attached dmesg and lsusb when the device is working in 2.6.29 (i.e. the step prior to having it working in 2.6.30). If I flip the physical kill switch in a working 2.6.30 the indicator light disappears and reappears as it should (though the modem then doesn't show up in NetworkManager, but I suspect that's a different problem). There isn't a /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill1/persistent, but I'll check /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill1/state next time I lose the device. Same as bug 514038? (Leave both bugs open for now, there is debug info in both of them.) (In reply to comment #9) > Same as bug 514038? I suspect bug 514038 comment 8 may be the same as this bug, but earlier parts of that bug are different, or at least have different symptoms: it seems in 514038 that although the device is lost after suspend, it comes back after reboot (or at least did until comment 8). Also bug 514038 existed on 2.4.29, whereas this only started with 2.4.30. Or do you think the underlying cause is related? (I don't usually suspend; having tried I do indeed loose the working wwan device as per 514038) (In reply to comment #10) > Also bug 514038 existed on 2.4.29, whereas this only started with 2.4.30. Ahem. 2.6, of course ;) Still present with kernel-PAE-2.6.30.9-96.fc11.i686 Re-installing kernel-PAE-2.6.29.6-217.2.16.fc11.i686 from koji (yum had bumped it off) gets the sierra modem working again. Though the issue is fixed when I try the Fedora 12 Beta LiveCD (which is using 2.6.31.1-56.fc12, should this be a kernel problem). This message is a reminder that Fedora 11 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 11. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '11'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 11's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 11 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 11 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-06-25. Fedora 11 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
