novatel U727 drivers
i need third party drivers for SuSe 10.1, Fedora 8 or Ubuntu for the Novatel U727 Wireless card. i cant seem to find any. and i cant seem to get it installed with the commands provided by Sprint.
Hello!
Did you try to see if your system recognizes some interfaces when you connect the device?
Just use "tail /var/log/messages" to see the last system messages. They don't change often so you should see some changes when you connect your device.
I'm not familiar with your card...is it a HSDPA modem or a 802.11g wireless card?
Good luck,
John!
I used a similar device (Huawei E220) with Ubuntu Hardy Heron 8.0.4.
However it didn't work out of the box. What I had to do was to remove the usbserial module.
I don't remember the exact steps but you should do something like :
I've done this using Hardy Heron, I don't know if it will work with previous kernels, but its worth a try.
Good luck!
Best wishes,
John!

I don't remember the exact steps but you should do something like :
- Code: Select all
sudo su
//Most of the commands will require root acces
lsmod | grep usb
//Search for loaded usb modules. You should see something like airprime, usbserial, usb-storage. Try to remove usbserial, if it's in use remove the other modules that are using it (in my case it was airprime) so :
rmmod airprime
rmmod usbserial
//Remove your device and connect it again after a few seconds. Now you should be able to use your device with KPPP.
