Public bug reported: On a clean install of Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon, USB ADSL Modem Manager fails to work.
It installs fine from the deb files. When opening it displays the icon in the system tray, but when you put you mouse over it, all it says is "Starting Up". It should asks about extracting Firmware for the USB Modem. Right clicking and selecting Extract Firmware does nothing, so USB ADSL Modems are unusable and so therefore no internet connection for people with this modem. I am currently having to use Windows to write this. People will turn away from Ubuntu if this isn't fixed especially new users who will be put off due to not working with there hardware. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: needs-packaging -- USB ADSL Modem Manager doesn't work on Gutsy Gibbon https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/154414 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
