Description Foxcool 2011-11-25 19:48:32 UTC 
Description of problem:

I used modem Flyer U12 on Fedora 15 and usb_modeswitch  switched the device as a modem correctly, and usbserial added  /dev/ttyUSB*. When I installed Fedora 16, usb_modeswith continued to switch the device correctly but the modem didn`t appear in /dev/. I think trere is a problem with usbserial.

Additional info:

[root@foxbook Foxcool]# cat /etc/modprobe.d/flyer.conf
options usbserial vendor=0x1с9e product=0x9605

usbserial is built into the kernel now, not as a module.  You'll need to specify those options on the kernel command line.
