[ubuntu-in] Problems Setting Up Huawei ets2288 - CDMA (BSNL WLL) on Hardy Heron

[ramnarayan.k at gmail.com]

Hi

This is subsequent to some earlier mails on this subject.

I installed Hardy Heron (dual booting with feisty fawn so that i can 
continue to access the net)

So here are the results of my attempt at setup

uname -a
~$ uname -a
Linux ram2-laptop 2.6.24-16-generic #1 SMP Thu Apr 10 13:23:42 UTC 2008 
i686 GNU/Linux

Result of dmesg -c
laptop~$ sudo dmesg -c
[  391.793755] usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and 
address 6
[  391.838450] usb 1-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
[  391.842334] ti_usb_3410_5052: probe of 1-1:1.0 failed with error -5


result of LSUSB
laptop~$ lsusb
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 0451:3410 Texas Instruments, Inc. TUSB3410 
Microcontroller

***
Then Added the file
laptop:~$ sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/026_ti_usb_3410.rules

with the following lines

#TI USB 3410
SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device" ACTION=="add" 
SYSFS{idVendor}=="0451",SYSFS{idProduct}=="3410" \
SYSFS{bNumConfigurations}=="2" \
SYSFS{bConfigurationValue}=="1" \
RUN+="/bin/sh -c 'echo 2 > /sys%p/device/bConfigurationValue'"

***

After that ran dmesg -c again and this is the result

laptop:~$ sudo dmesg -c
[   92.920387] usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and 
address 5
[   92.965144] usb 1-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
[   92.969036] ti_usb_3410_5052: probe of 1-1:1.0 failed with error -5

  ***

So whats wrong – why is Hardy Heron not being able to pick up the device 
and configure it.

***
The same configuration works under Ubuntu 7.04


Tried the link to the Howto on the Ubuntu Wiki

this is the result of trying to edit wvdialconf
laptop:~$ sudo wvdialconf
Editing `/etc/wvdial.conf'.

Scanning your serial ports for a modem.

Modem Port Scan<*1>: S0   S1   S2   S3


Sorry, no modem was detected!  Is it in use by another program?
Did you configure it properly with setserial?

Please read the FAQ at http://open.nit.ca/wiki/?WvDial

If you still have problems, send mail to <wvdial-list at lists.nit.ca>.


***
The problem seems that Hardy Heron is not able to redirect the device to 
/dev/ttyUSB0 *which is what was happening in Ubuntu 7.04.

So now what - any advice

thanks
