[ilugd] Attempts to set up Reliance ZTE data card on Ubuntu Linux and help required

2006-09-10 Thread Ramnarayan . K
Hi

Am back again , after having tried a few things to setup the Reliance
CDMA ZTE315 data card

System -Laptop using Ubuntu Dapper 6.06
So I used infor from the following links

http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LinuxQuestions_org/CDMA_modem_phone_Howto
and
http://spo0nman.blogspot.com/2006/08/huawei-ec321-cdma-on-linux.html

but after having progressed some still cannot figure out how to get
the modem working.

The first link  got the  ZTE phone modem working and following the
instructions from that link i seem to have got close but not close
enough so need to understand what else to do to get the modem
identified properly and working

Ran the following and got an ouput that that not show anyhting apart
from the figerprint reader

 If it is getting detected as ttyS3 then there is no need for cdc_acm.
 Whta you need is usbserial module. Run modprobe to see what all is
 loaded for usb modules.

ok will do
 Of course you need to make sure that the device is not being
 recognised as something else. For instance the Samsung191 phone always
 got recognised as Handspring Visor (output from tail -f
 /var/log/messages) so putting the module visor in blacklist solved the
 problem.

 Run tail as above when you insert/remove the card and see what exactly
 it is getting recognised as.

 [SNIPED]

 Since you are using Ubuntu the best way would be run pppconfig and
 create new connection, say pcmcia. Then with tail running give
 command pon pcmcia and to switch off poff

 The tail should show exact modem communication as it hapens. Here I
 have had the maximum troubles in figuring out the extra settings to be
 passed on inplace of / along with atz. My Nokia 2112 takes
 ATZF+CRM=1;+CSO=33

Nope I did not boot into the Win NT /XP section - which as you are right was
the recovery section.

   You booted with the label Win Xp Home (the
 recovery section) and it tried to recover your laptop
 to factory default settings and rewrote the MBR.
 Apparently it seems like the rewriting didn't go very
 well as it should have just booted into Windows
 without giving you any prompt for Grub. Now I wonder
 if the Windows partition is still intact and available
 to you.


Yes its intact and am writing to you from the windows section.

I have reinstalled but am not sure this is stable

after reinstall i tried the first option and it went into to recovery mode -
and since i did not have the recovery cd's it got stuck (froze) so was
forced to poweroff , I rebooted after that a couple of times and things seem
ok now.

Wonder if there is a need to poweroff after the first install boot. ??
