Re: [VPCZ2] How to get Huawei Gobi 3000 working with kernel 3.2 ?

 

I think this is why you dont success to run gpsd. Because the interface you are using is the interface "Diagnostics Monitor" which is not about GPS I think. A third interface is missing for the gps...

HadiM,
So doing a "modprobe GobiSerial debug=y" I get:

Not sure why yours only finds 3 Interfaces and mine finds 4...

Also, I'm sure that Vicki is correct that GobiSerial is deprecated or
maybe about to be, but I couldn't get GobiNet to work. Hopefully the
patched qcserial will work for you

Let me know.

    So if I well understood GobiSerial is kind of deprecated and will be
    replaced by GobiSerial ? What about GPS ? Can GobiNet handle GPS ?
    Will we keep GobiSerial only for the GPS ?

    I will try to patch qcserial to get Gobi 3000 working.

    Thank for the help.

    Cheers,

        I modified the qcserial driver to include the hardware IDs for
        the gobi
        3000 and the NetworkManager developers had to do a small fix to
        get it
        to run but it is working. There is a bigger change required to
        get it to
        work with GobiSerial and they are waiting on some google
        developers to
        get the GobiNet actually running (which is the replacement for
        GobiSerial) so I don't think there's much of a chance to see
        GobiSerial
        supported in NetworkManager.

        So just patch your qcserial module to include the gobi hardware
        IDs and
        use that instead of GobiSerial and make sure you have the latest
        NetworkManager.

            Last point: if any NetworkManager or close to NetworkManager
        developer
            see this: any chance to get GobiSerial working with
        NetworkManager ?
