To All,
I am trying to use MC7710 with DirectIP option under our custom Linux on AT91SAM9263 SoC, running kernel 2.6.32.27, but I am getting a kernel crash when I load the module.
I have downloaded the DirectIP driver from here:
mycusthelp.net/SIERRAWIRELESS/_c … spx?aid=44
At first, driver didn’t compile so I needed to apply a simple patch.
Now, when I plug in my card, I get:
usb 1-1.3: new high speed USB device using isp1761 and address 3
usb 1-1.3: config 1 has an invalid interface number: 7 but max is 5
usb 1-1.3: config 1 has no interface number 5
usb 1-1.3: config 1 has usb 1-1.3: New USB device found, idVendor=1199, idProduct=68a3
usb 1-1.3: New USB device strings: Mfr=3, Product=2, SerialNumber=4
usb 1-1.3: Product: MC7710
usb 1-1.3: Manufacturer: Sierra Wireless, Incorporated
usb 1-1.3: SerialNumber: 358178040268312
But when I load seirra_net.ko I immediately get a crash, like this:
GL-SH> modprobe sierra_net

Please note, the I can use this modem using only sierra.ko module as a “normal” modem
with the help from PPP.
It seems that interface_to_usbdev() returns incorrect address, but I do not know why.
Any help would be appreciated.
Also, as I side note. What is preferred, DIrectIP or QMI mode for Linux?
Thank you and Best Regards,
Matej
