![]() After doing that, I was connected immediately. click the network applet and select 'Auto mobile broadband (CDMA) connection'.Īt this point I was prompted to enter country and broadband provider. ![]() Sudo gedit /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/ 20thirdparty/10-modem.fdi Sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/lesįind the line that contains "Novatel_Mass_Storage" and append the following to it: The bold item below is the subfolder name I had to find and change, based on my particular Ubuntu 12.04 install: I had to drill down through directories to determine the full path to use. I just got it work, but for the second gedit command line, the last subfolder name was different. UPDATE on the method cited (4 years ago) in that link: I am no Linux expert by far, but I was able to get it working. I'm not saying it is right, it's just the way it is. That is pretty standard, AT&T it the same way with thier devices. What he really should of said was "we don't support it working with Linux". ![]() Sounds to me like the gods of "proprietary" are runing the show (as usual). at least tell the truth about your failure to provide drivers for Linux. If by that time Verison still trys to tell us that this device "does not support Linux" Probably the wife and I will change all of our Verison business to whoever else can serve our wireless needs.Ĭ'mon Verison. Well I have some time to go before renewing my contract. Should they decide to do so they will be hailed as leaders in the wireless market. They could as easily include those for Linux. Verison has build in the drivers for MS and Apple into the device. Hopefully James at Verison will discover that the statement pasted above is not true. I much prefer almost any flavor of Linux. I am using Vista now only because I must in order to use my Verison Wireless device, not because I want to. Are we to think that Verison simply does not care to support Linux? This is not something which inspires confidence I would think. Verison Wireless states above that ".it does not support Linux" but the manufacturer, Novatel claims otherwise (check their website). Here is a reply which is about one year old but the question of Linux drivers remains.
