Hi all. * I tested on XO-1.75 with os14; the frame appeared fine (booting-up with the USB-flash drive, and USB-modem inserted) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
* Pulling off my hair, I re-tested on XO-1.75 with os11 (booting-up with the USB-flash drive, and USB-modem inserted) ; thankfully, the frame-icon did not appear (as before). * I then tested on XO-1.75 with the os12 (booting up with the USB-flash drive, and USB-modem inserted); the frame-icon appeared FINE here too. I compared the packages-difference between os11 and os12; os12 has an updated version of usb_modeswitch and usb_modeswitch_data. Also, in os12, there is no more the error usb_modeswitch_dispatcher: *** glibc detected *** usb_modeswitch_dispatcher: double free or corruption (!prev): 0x00081fe0 *** that was happening in os11 (in the culprit case, that is). So, bad news : Things are happening without us knowing the root-cause :-\ good news : Seems like http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/12340 can be closed :D Thanks everyone for the help (especially James).
