Created attachment 521196 [details] Output from NetworkManager when failing to connect. Description of problem: I have a Gobi 2000 in my laptop. This has worked before under Fedora 13 (with gobi_loader, Gobi proprietary firmware and compat-wireless installed) but despite adding the firmware and gobi_loader (same versions as I used in Fedora 13) I can't get it to work in Fedora 15. I have the appropriate devices and has set it up in NetworkManager as before, but it fails to connect. Compat-wireless is not possible to use in Fedora 15, but I will file a separate bug report for that one to not clutter this one too much. This is a bit of a problem for me since 3G is the main way I connect to Internet on this machine... Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gobi_loader-0.7 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Activate Mobile Broadband in appropriate dialogue (tested both in Gnome 3 and KDE) 2. Watch it fail. Actual results: Not Connected Expected results: Connected Additional info: See excerpt from /var/log/messages attached to this bug report.
Hmm, I have Gobi 2000 in my ThinkPad T510 (just installed it today, actually) and it works fine with F-15, x86_64. I installed gobi_loader RPM (0.7) that I built from source and copied the firmware files to /lib/firmware/gobi. After that is done and a valid SIM is in the slot, I can just use NetworkManager to create a new connection.
On my connection, I get this (from your log): ----------------- GSM connection failed: (32) Sending command failed: 'Resource temporarily unavailable' ----------------- When my credit is zero.
Martin, are you able to run that according to comments #1, #2. If not, please follow steps of "Debugging NetworkManager 0.8.x 3G connections" at http://live.gnome.org/NetworkManager/Debugging to get detailed logs.
One more suggestion, maybe you can try the steps from Troubleshooting section in this document: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Qualcomm_Gobi_2000
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached 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, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. 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
