Binary package hint: network-manager
This is pretty much like Bug #410634, but with different hardware. Running Karmic Alpha 4 Netbook Remix on a Dell Mini 9, tethered by usb to a Nokia E71x. Jaunty worked perfectly out of the box.
When I first plug in my phone, it is recognized on both ends as a modem. I can add a new Mobile Broadband connection fine, my phone is correctly recognized as a Nokia E71 (x), and I am correctly limited to only US GSM carriers (not CDMA).
Once I try to connect, though:
1. The blue line around the green lights in nm-applet may spin rapidly, and never connect.
2. One green light may turn on like normal, but I get an error.
3. After doing this some random number of times, nm-applet will usually crash and stop responding. I can kill it, but restarting only gives errors and I must reboot. I'll post more on this once I'm not actually using my laptop.
4. Rarely, my whole computer will freeze with a possible kernel error, although I don't believe this has happened with the latest NM from trunk.
I've tried running NM as released with Karmic alpha 4, plus the standard updates since. I've also tried the normal NM ppa, and the trunk PPA.
Right now:
apt-cache policy network-manager
