Subject: Re: [usb-storage] Re: [opensuse-factory] huawei usb dongle e173 not
working on tumbleweed
(Ron replied separately with kernel versions and usb_modeswitch versions.)
Ron, it appears that while Tumbleweed upgraded the kernel version, it
didn't upgrade the usb_modeswitch version. You probably need a newer
version to support that device. I just checked
http://www.draisberghof.de/usb_modeswitch/ and the current version
(2.0.1) has support for your device.
You will either need to update your usb_modeswitch manually or get the
Tumbleweed maintainers to do so.
