[Bug 289239] Re: [intrepid ubuntu] gnome-ppp lacks permissions
I recovered my old Zoom USB modem from the scrap box and tested it on Karmic. It is worse than it ever was, it is not even finding the modem. here is what i did: 1) installed gnome-ppp 2)plugged in USB modem 3)looked at dmesg: [ 5775.796157] usb 2-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 6 [ 5775.916161] usb 2-1: device descriptor read/64, error -71 [ 5778.617516] usb 2-1: configuration #1 chosen from 2 choices [ 5778.622401] cdc_acm 2-1:1.0: ttyACM4: USB ACM device which I interpret as a modem at ttyACM4, corrrect? 4)started gnome-ppp from the terminal and clicked connect. this happened: ~$ gnome-ppp WVCONF: /home/ullix/.wvdial.conf GNOME PPP: Connecting...

[Bug 289239] Re: [intrepid ubuntu] gnome-ppp lacks permissions
I tried my Zoom USB modem on another computer with a Lucid install. Had to install gnome-ppp. Pluggin in the modem: dmesg showed it as [10818.910199] usb 5-2: configuration #1 chosen from 2 choices [10818.912543] cdc_acm 5-2:1.0: ttyACM0: USB ACM device then starting gnome-ppp: had to Detect the modem in the setup, and it immediately detected it. But it is NOT listed in the drop-down box. Oddly enough, it is shown as an analog modem, not a USB modem. Tried to make a few dial-ins: none would work, but the log seems to indicate taht it would have connected if it could. It could not, because I am now on a VOIP phone line, and those numbers are blocked or don't work for technical reasons. Can't tell whether it worked,but did not see strange messages on lacking permissions and such. -- [intrepid ubuntu] gnome-ppp lacks permissions https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/289239 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Well, the action on this bug report wasn't exactly overwhelming ...
