Joerg Bergmann:

I try to get running a novatel MC950D 3G device

in

fedora 11. lsusb shows vedor/device as 1410:5010.
Any hints?

Thank you! Joerg Bergmann

According to this web page, the driver is included in

the kernel:

http://www.ubuntudoctor.com/content/blog/3g-modem-installation-on-ubuntu-linux

If this is true, you can just start

system-config-network(System->Administration->Network)
and start setting

up a modem connection.
If it gets recognized as a USB stick first, try the

following:

su -c 'modprobe -r usbserial'
su -c 'umount  /media/Movistar/'
sudo -c 'modprobe usbserial vendor=0x1410

product=0x5010'
There won't be recognized a USB stick, but there is no
/dev/ttyUSBx as well. modprobe -r usbserial reports
FATAL: usbserial in use. And, additional:
WARNING: Deprecated config file /etc/modprobe.conf, all
config files belong into /etc/modprobe.d/
And, on the creation of modem connection, no modem will
be found.

If you don't mind try the following (hoping wvdial was installed on your machine)

$ su -
passwd:
# wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf

it will scan modem ports and hopefully it might find one like /dev/ttyUSB0 ... /dev/ttyUSB3, or something like /dev/ttyACM0 ... /dev/ttyACM3, ..., etc

Otherwise,

unplug the device and please do the following

$ dmesg and/or (as root su -) # tail -f /var/log/messages

when the device is plugged back in.

Did not found a modem, here is the tail of /var/log/messages:
