[ubuntu-in] BSNL Huawei CDMA problem (Ramnarayan.K)

Hi Ram,

Selectively showing some part of your output.  I might be wrong here,
but it seems that there seems to be a problem with the permissions for
the device (/dev/ttyUSB0), which are being created by default.  It is
shown in {2).  Even running wvdial with sudo is giving errors.  Also,
wvdial can't find pppd.  Try 'whereis pppd' and see if the path to it
is the same as '/usr/sbin/pppd', or is in a folder in your PATH
variable (env | grep PATH or echo $PATH)

Also, (1) looks wierd.  Is there some problem in detecting the device
correctly?  You might need to report the details of that the device to
Launchpad and wait a little to get it fixed.  'lsusb -v -d
[vendorid]:[productid]' will give you a dump on the USB device, which
could be useful

This isn't solving your problem much, but I can't think of anything.
:) Maybe someone on the list could be more specific.
