running fedora 8 on my laptop. recently my sony ericsson which i regularly use for 3g internet access suddenly stopped working with network manager as in it does not even list as a device.
my kernel detects it, loads module
Code:
usb 2-1: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 4
usb 2-1: configuration #3 chosen from 1 choice
cdc_acm 2-1:3.1: ttyACM0: USB ACM device
cdc_acm 2-1:3.3: ttyACM1: USB ACM device
usb0: register 'cdc_ether' at usb-0000:00:13.0-1, CDC Ethernet Device, 02:80:37:1a:03:00
usb0: no IPv6 routers present
it does not always register in /sbin/ifconfig either. the phone is still fine over kppp though. can someone give me an idea what is going on?
