Hi;

After I upgraded from kernel 2.6.18 to 3.5.3 modeswitch started not to work for me. Although lsusb shows my usb modem, usb_modeswitch does not switch it. My system information is like below. I ran lsusb, dmesg, usb-devices and usb_modeswitch their output is like below. usb_modeswitch instead of switching my modem it says "No devices in default mode found. Nothing to do. Bye.". Can you offer a solution?


Kernel: Linux 3.5.3
usb_modeswitch: 1.2.3-1
usb_modeswitch-data: 20120120-1
usbutils: 006-1
libusb: 1.0.8-0.1

I can only assume that there is a problem with libusb ...

Can you check if "lsusb" is linked to the same libusb version as usb_modeswitch ?

You can use the "ldd" command for that.

I doubt that becuase in my Ubuntu machine it works. Its info is like below.

On my Ubuntu it works like a charm and as you see libraries have same versions. On the other hand my CentOS machine having same versions cannot run usb_modeswitch correctly. My udev is a bit old in CentOS machine, do you think that can be a problem?(Its version is 095)
