Problem is that my computer, running on Ubuntu 12.04, don't detect my Nokia CS-17 USB modem . There is something fishy on usb-modeswitch packkage . What i can do with this problem? Please, somebody help!

[LOM]

I feel for you bro..
Do you have any useful information to provide except for "it doesn't work"?

[Markera]

It doesn't do nothing at all. Allmost it's like a complete wierdo thing to computer. It doesn't recognise that thing . I don't understand what's wrong with that. Allmost like a bug in the mode-switch .

I don't understand what's wrong with that. Allmost like a bug in the mode-switch.

Before assuming too much, please enable usb_modeswitch's logging in
"/etc/usb_modeswitch.conf".

Post the resulting log (after a re-plug of your modem) here.

My USB modem is now activated. It doesn't do nothing, allmost like dead. I managed once to put the computer to detect the appliance for a few seconds by following someones orders, but then disapered .
I tried that piece of code in command center, but computer say that the command doesn't found.

Probably a misunderstanding. You need to open the file "/etc/usb_modeswitch.conf" in an editor.
Change the value of "EnableLogging" from 0 to 1.

See the short explanation in that file.

It says: acces denied. I cannot acces in the usb-modeswitch.

[Josh]

This is a system file, so you need to have root (superuser) rights to edit it. Use a terminal-based editor like "pico" with the "sudo" command, or open a graphical editor with the "gksudo" or "kdesudo".

Pico doesn't exist anymore , it's replaced with nano what we have & with graphical editor the command do nothing. I also tried with UX Terminal, but acces is still denied. Could somebody please upload the bugfixed package for ubuntu???

What bugfixed package?
usb_modeswitch switches this device perfectly and has done so since it got included in the datapackage over 2 years ago.
It can't be that difficult to edit a config file and change a value from 0 to 1 and save the file so that you get a log next time you plug the device, a log showing what usb_modeswitch does.

Problem is, that even i am superuser, the editing program in Ubuntu for system files says: acces for those particular files is denied, so i can't edit or open those files in my computer . What else i could do
