Hello, I hope someone can hlep me take this hurdle towards using Centos7 I'm trying to get a usb 3-g dongle to work on Centos7
On Centos6 I can follow the instructions that come with the device to get it to work: 1. Insert stick 2. Dismiss all popups about running the auto install scripts 3. Open terminal 4. cd $HOME 5. mkdir vfinstall 6. cd vfinstall 7. (cd /media/"Vodafone Mobile Broadband" && tar -cvf - .) | tar -xf <96> 8. chmod +x autorun.sh install_linux 9. sudo ./autorun.sh 10. Type user password 11. Wait for last command to finish, then close terminal or just cd /media/Vodafone Mobile Broadband ./ install_linux I also tested the stick on Fedora21, it connects without installing anything. On Centos7 I see this: [root@jvermeulen ~]# dmesg | tail -n15 [ 2352.742416] usb 2-2: new high-speed USB device number 4 using ehci-pci [ 2352.865172] usb 2-2: New USB device found, idVendor=12d1, idProduct=1f1c [ 2352.865186] usb 2-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3 [ 2352.865193] usb 2-2: Product: HUAWEI Mobile [ 2352.865200] usb 2-2: Manufacturer: Vodafone(Huawei) [ 2352.865207] usb 2-2: SerialNumber: FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF [ 2352.913434] usb-storage 2-2:1.0: USB Mass Storage device detected [ 2352.913791] scsi host6: usb-storage 2-2:1.0 [ 2353.930584] scsi 6:0:0:0: CD-ROM HUAWEI Mass Storage 2.31 PQ: 0 ANSI: 2 [ 2353.933129] sr 6:0:0:0: [sr1] scsi-1 drive [ 2353.935258] sr 6:0:0:0: Attached scsi CD-ROM sr1 [ 2354.156240] ISO 9660 Extensions: RRIP_1991A [ 2354.156261] SELinux: initialized (dev sr1, type iso9660), uses genfs_contexts [root@jvermeulen ~]# tail -f /var/log/messages May 11 21:05:04 jvermeulen kernel: usb 2-1: Product: HUAWEI Mobile May 11 21:05:04 jvermeulen kernel: usb 2-1: Manufacturer: Vodafone(Huawei) May 11 21:05:04 jvermeulen kernel: usb 2-1: SerialNumber: FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF May 11 21:05:04 jvermeulen kernel: usb-storage 2-1:1.0: USB Mass Storage device detected May 11 21:05:04 jvermeulen kernel: scsi host5: usb-storage 2-1:1.0 May 11 21:05:04 jvermeulen mtp-probe: checking bus 2, device 3: "/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.7/usb2/2-1" May 11 21:05:04 jvermeulen mtp-probe: bus: 2, device: 3 was not an MTP device May 11 21:05:05 jvermeulen kernel: scsi 5:0:0:0: CD-ROM HUAWEI Mass Storage 2.31 PQ: 0 ANSI: 2 May 11 21:05:05 jvermeulen kernel: sr 5:0:0:0: [sr2] scsi-1 drive May 11 21:05:06 jvermeulen udisksd[2765]: Mounted /dev/sr2 at /run/media/jvermeulen/Vodafone Mobile Mroadband on behalf of uid 15587 and the I see this EM: May 11 21:06:37 jvermeulen dbus-daemon: dbus[773]: [system] Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.12" (uid=0 pid=886 comm="/usr/sbin/NetworkManager --no-daemon ") interface="org.freedesktop.DBus.ObjectManager" member="GetManagedObjects" error name="(unset)" requested_reply="0" destination=":1.75" (uid=0 pid=3806 comm="/usr/sbin/ModemManager ") May 11 21:06:37 jvermeulen dbus[773]: [system] Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.12" (uid=0 pid=886 comm="/usr/sbin/NetworkManager --no-daemon ") interface="org.freedesktop.DBus.ObjectManager" member="GetManagedObjects" error name="(unset)" requested_reply="0" destination=":1.75" (uid=0 pid=3806 comm="/usr/sbin/ModemManager ") May 11 21:06:37 jvermeulen NetworkManager[886]: <warn> error creating ModemManager client: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied: Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.12" (uid=0 pid=886 comm="/usr/sbin/NetworkManager --no-daemon ") interface="org.freedesktop.DBus.ObjectManager" member="GetManagedObjects" error name="(unset)" requested_reply="0" destination=":1.75" (uid=0 pid=3806 comm="/usr/sbin/ModemManager ") Further attempts to install the software always lead to EM: you must run the install process as root. I contacted Vodafone support, their answer is they don't support Linux, even if they supply software for Linux on the Vodafone site. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
