After browsing some forums it seems that 12.04 also breaks Nokia CS-17 and perhaps many others.
I also found a work around for this bug: Open file: “/lib/udev/rules.d/40-usb_modeswitch.rules” Find lines: # Nokia CS-15 ATTRS{idVendor}=="0421", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0610", RUN+="usb_modeswitch '%b/%k'" Comment the second line out by placing # -character in front of it and save the file. Plug in the Internet stick and type "eject /dev/sr1" to the console (or "eject /dev/sr0" if the computer has no CD-drive). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/992639 Title: Regression: 12.04 update breaks support for Internet Sticks (3G modems): Nokia CS-15, Nokia cs-17 and perhaps many others To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/992639/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
