Nokia N78 and 6500c not detected in modem mode

[Martijn vdS]

Binary package hint: hal-info

I have a Nokia N78 and a 6500 Classic. The N78 has USB id 0421:007b when in "3G modem" mode, the 6500c has id 0421:003d.

I think these should be added to the list of other Nokia 3G phones in 10-modem.fdi.

Hello Martijn,

this requires a little more info: we need to know the protocols as well as the used interface number. Can you please look at /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop/10-modem.fdi and and produce a similar stanza for your device?

[Martijn vdS (martijn)]

imho, they should both be part of the huge Nokia stanza which is marked

<!-- E51/6300/3109c/6120 Classic/E71/E70/N95-3/E90/N70/E61/N95-2/N96/N82/N82 (alternate chip)/E66/E61i/E60/N93/N71/N77/N90/N91/N80/E62/N76/N73/N92/N72/E50/N75/N93i/E65/N78 -->

The N78 is in there already, but using a different USB id (might be a hardware revision..), and the 6500c is almost identical to the 6300, which is also in that list already.

I guess the attached patch does what I just described here (not tested)
