Huawei E220 on ALIX
Hi all! I'm trying to use a Huawei E220 UMTS USB modem on an ALIX, using OpenBSD Flashdist 20080504. I have extended the GEODE configuration as follows: # diff -c /opt/flashdist-20080504/GEODE /usr/src/sys/arch/i386/conf/GEODE *** /opt/flashdist-20080504/GEODE Sun May 4 21:32:07 2008 --- /usr/src/sys/arch/i386/conf/GEODE Wed Jul 16 21:36:15 2008 *** *** 87,93 --- 87,95 uhub* at usb? # USB Hubs uhub* at uhub?# USB Hubs umodem* at uhub?# USB Modems/Serial + umsm* at uhub?# Qualcomm MSM EVDO ucom* at umodem? + ucom* at umsm? #ubsa*at uhub?# Belkin serial adapter #ucom*at ubsa? #uftdi* at uhub?# FTDI FT8U100AX serial adapter With the kernel built from this configuration, Flashdist sees the Huawei thing as ugen0, while I expected to see it as ucom0. Is there anyone in here who can weigh in with some advice regarding initialization of the Huawei E220? I do know that the E220 needs some trickery to kill off its mass storage part in order to make the serial part available. However, I have never worked with this myself, neither on OpenBSD nor on Linux where the procedure appears to be fairly common. Also, how can I tell if the kernel built from the above configuration really has support for umsm?

If it still fails, send output from dmesg and usbdevs -v.

If it still fails, send output from dmesg and usbdevs -v. I plugged it into my development box (4.3) where it misbehaved as expected (the umass driver is not in the GEODE kernel from Flashdist): umass0 at uhub0 port 1 configuration 1 interface 2 HUAWEI Technologies HUAWEI Mobile rev 1.10/0.00 addr 2 umass0: using SCSI over Bulk-Only scsibus2 at umass0: 2 targets umass0: BBB reset failed, STALLED umass0: BBB reset failed, STALLED I'll read up on checking out and building a -current kernel. Judging from the commit log for umsm.c, it's the only way to go. -martin [demime 1.01d removed an attachment of type application/pgp-signature which had a name of signature.asc]

Got it! # cu -s 115200 -l /dev/ttyU0 ati Manufacturer: huawei Model: E220 Revision: 11.110.05.00.00 IMEI: 355083018404928 +GCAP: +CGSM,+DS,+ES OK This is not on the ALIX yet, I'll get to that later.
