New try: I used a new possibly faster that the USB stick, an SDHC as the LiveUSB (LL desktop beta 2)
Boot without modem, try ubuntu, all defaults (english, etc), modem attached, found, connected, 2nd try connected, 3rd try NO ACTION (at nm/mm). Attached /var/log/daemon.log shows timing which can be compared with the 'human actions' described below: sudo dmesg -c (to clear previous long dmesg) 23:40 modem attached 23:42 found at nm icon, new broadband connection, connected (>>> terminal was open, mouse pointer disappeared, pressing ESC pointer came back) browsing, time changed via internet to -3 hours 20:46 disconnected, modem removed 20:48 modem attached, found, green led was on, connected GPRS (ok), browse 20:52 modem found/changed to 3G, browsing all fine 20:54 disconnected, modem removed 20:55 modem attached again >>> never appeared at nm icon, daemon.log froze at 20:56:40 21:00 modem removed 21:01 modem attached again >>> no activity to daemon.log daemon.log and dmesg copied to desktop (liveUSB has a minimum default persistent area) 21:0x >>> use all times classics! sudo stop network-manager sudo killall modem-manager sudo pppd .... (long commaaaaaand), connected, launchpad.net, wrote this message (now time shows 21:22, actual is 00:22) files attached for further debugging.
