How do I make NetworkManager use ModemManager?
Thanks,

I have a similar issue I think.
I believe that you should emerge modemmanager to get it working with NetworkManager, but I have problems with solving blocking issues with other packages.
| Code: | # emerge -av modemmanager
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

And I think that I need device-mapper on my system.
What have you tried so far? |

Nothing except emerge NetworkManager and ModemManager.
Modem is detected however some other stuff goes on:

A small disagreement in the log: kernel indicates GSM and NetworkManager indicates CDMA.

I have given up modemmanager (at least for now), and are trying to get things working with wvdial instead.
Anyway, my kernel does not mention anything about radio access technology:
| Code: | # dmesg
...
usb 3-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 25
usb 3-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
usbserial_generic 3-1:1.0: generic converter detected
usb 3-1: generic converter now attached to ttyUSB0
usbserial_generic 3-1:1.1: generic converter detected
usb 3-1: generic converter now attached to ttyUSB1
usb-storage: probe of 3-1:1.2 failed with error -1
usbserial_generic 3-1:1.2: generic converter detected
usb 3-1: generic converter now attached to ttyUSB2
usb-storage: probe of 3-1:1.3 failed with error -1
usbserial_generic 3-1:1.3: generic converter detected
usb 3-1: generic converter now attached to ttyUSB3 |
This is after a successful (I believe) usb_modeswitch.
I am running on 2.6.30-gentoo-r4 |
