First release of FreeBSD driver for Option HSDPA devicesPosted by fli in FreeBSD, tags: FreeBSD, hsdpa, hso, optionI’ve published the first public beta of my FreeBSD driver for Option HSDPA modems. The driver is still beta but have been successfully tested (and used) with a Option GlobeSurfer iCON 7.2 S device (using a Turbo 3G account from Tre/Hi3G Access Sweden). The driver is available for download together with instructions at the hso page. Please report successes and failures.

Hi
I have been testing your driver with a USB dongle from Telenor…
Some success
I will see what info i can find on this device and see if i can reach further…
Thanks for your work
Cheers

Hi
I have been testing your driver
The system is: i386 FreeBSD 7.0-STABLE-200804
Device ID 0×6901 (Telenor usb dongle)

The cua, tty and hso0 devices are created
When i fire minicom up – the system panics
but i caugth this:

kernel: hso_txcb: hso_txcb: non-normal status
kernel: hso_tty_close: ht=0xc676d180
i will see if i can find more info in this device and see if i can come futher.
Thanks for the great work

What’s the device ID of the device before switching, 0×05c6 ?
The device ID 0×6901 looks like a GlobeSurfer iCON 7.2 but with the old firmware that doesn’t require a separate driver.
Try adding the device id to the ubsa driver (sys/dev/usb/ubsa.c) and check if that driver works.
If you have a windows box, you can fire up the HyperTerminal and do a AT+GMR to get the firmware version.
Yes, it is a 0×05c6. It works with the ubsa driver and connection with ppp
Card name: GTM378
Firmware version: 1.12, 1Hd (Feb 22, 2007)
Hardware version: 3.1
Is this driver a translation to FreeBSD of the Option HSO driver (see pharscape)?
@endorendil
No and Yes, it’s not a translation (port or whatever) in the sense that there is NO code shared between the two drivers/projects.
However, the Linux-driver is the only hardware “documentation” I’ve found so of course it has been used to understand how the hardware works (USB endpoints, initialization sequences, etc).
Hi fli,
Thanks. The lack of documentation leads to another question: is the new driver actually better than the previous ones (nozomi/kernel module), or is it just a way to create a proprietary set of drivers and software?
This driver is NOT for the nozomi chipset but for the various new HSxPA USB-dongles from Option. (GlobeSurfer, iCON, etc). The blog post title is a bit misleading, I’ll give you that.
There is some code for the nozomi chipset floating around on freebsd-mobile@ (or maybe it was on freebsd-net@). I don’t know how usable it is though.
Hi fli,
I am just wondering why they had to change the interface at all. Seems gratuitous. None of the other vendors seems to have actually changed anything in going to the new speeds.
Well, the Nozomi cards have PC-card interface. Their older USB cards used to work with “generic” serial-over-usb drivers but newer “high speed” USB cards have a have changed this. I don’t know why they did it tough.
