I'm pushing for F13 and F12 at least :) I usually end up getting the
bugs when modems don't switch, I just never had the time to give
usb_modeswitch any love.
One last thing: Dan, is it your page at this URL:
http://live.gnome.org/NetworkManager/MobileBroadband
It says:
Huawei
Most Huawei devices are handled automatically by the kernel.
If the 'option' driver which handles Huawei devices lacks the
USB IDs of your device, the correct solution is to add those
IDs to the kernel driver by submitting a patch to your distribution's
bugzilla or Linux Kernel Mailing List. If your device is not yet
recognized, you can eject the fake driver CD with usb_modeswitch,
and bind the generic usbserial driver manually to the device (see below).
Someone filed a bug about this today:
