https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1308537 Title: [usb_wwan] unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: As seen on: https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/3f0d2482c07d31441d77a864477d8789a78b5e23 -- the lastest linux kernel update 3.13.0-24.46-generic 3.13.9 (maybe the previous one too) causes ModemManager to crash. sometimes, when using my usb modem (Huawei E367), it disconnects, and it becomes no longer detected by networkManager even lsusb command doesn't works (terminal waiting for command output) and shut-downing laptop doesn't complete this happens rarely since last days (~6 days), i'm not sure if the 2 previous kernel update had the same problems. note: some updates i did since last week: usb-modeswitch to 2.1.1+repack0-1ubuntu1 usb-modemswitch-data to 20140327-1 network-manager to 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu7 modemmanager to 1.0.0-2ubuntu1 that's a part of dmesg: [ 60.800205] usb 1-1.2: new
