Public bug reported: Basically, I boot my machine with an Alcatel 3G modem plugged in (via USB port), and the system doesn't seem to realize it exists. NetworkManager doesn't show it at all, and even in /var/log/syslog, I only see 'ALCATEL MASS STORAGE' at 380 seconds.
N.B.: This modem has some USB disk for configuration along with the modem itself.
