HP UN2400 mobile broadband driver issues

[Snotdronk]

Hi Guys

Im a Linux N00b , on Fedora 15 at present and im having a wierd issue with my onboard mobile 3G card

If i boot win7 first and then reboot into Fedora i have no issues with the driver detection of the HP UN2400 device
and can connect to a 3G network

But if i boot directly into Fedora first it does not detect the onboard 3G card at all , ive read on some other forums that Fedora cannot initialize the hardware by itself but once windows has booted the modem fedora can see it

is there someway i can manually initilize the hardware using scripting or adding something to the boot.ini ???

thanks guys
any help is appreciated

Hmmm, I'm not sure what your setup is so there is a lot of variables to consider...

Have you had a look at the log files to see if there is an error?

On another note. With 3G working, do:

lsmod > file1.txt

Do the same with 3G not working, change file1.txt to file2.txt, and you should see what module is the offending party:

diff file1.txt file2.txt

Paste the result here if there is a difference.

Now it is simply a matter of forcing the correct module(s) to load during boot. Try this first and hopefully it is all that is needed. I have a suspicion of something hardware related, but let's not get ahead of ourselves.
