Afternoon,<BR>I'm working on an HNC assignment using a Raspberry Pi model B
running <BR>wheezy-raspian.<BR>I'm a Linux Novice.<BR>The Kernel
is:<BR>pi@raspberrypi /usr/bin/modem3g $ cat /proc/version<BR>Linux version
3.6.11+ (dc4@dc4-arm-01) (gcc version 4.7.2 20120731 <BR>(prerelease)
(crosstool-NG linaro-1.13.1+bzr2458 - Linaro GCC 2012.08) ) <BR>#538 PREEMPT Fri
Aug 30 20:42:08 BST 2013<BR><BR>I have been using sakis3g and ser2net to connect
the RPi to the cellular <BR>network and act as a serial terminal server. (based
on various posts and <BR>blogs)<BR>I have added the following to rc.local in an
attempt to connect to the <BR>mobile network and configure the serial terminal
server.<BR>****<BR>#!/bin/sh -e<BR>#<BR># rc.local<BR>#<BR># This script is
executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel.<BR># Make sure that the script
will "exit 0" on success or any other<BR># value on error.<BR>#<BR># In order to
enable or disable this script just change the execution<BR># bits.<BR>#<BR># By
default this script does nothing.<BR><BR># Print the IP
address<BR>_IP=$(hostname -I) || true<BR>if [ "$_IP" ]; then<BR> printf
"My IP address is %s\n" "$_IP"<BR>fi<BR><BR>(sleep 2;sudo
/usr/local/sbin/ser2net -c /etc/ser2net.conf -n) &<BR>#sudo
/usr/bin/modem3g/sakis3g connect<BR>(sleep 5;sudo /home/pi/connect.sh)
&<BR>exit 0<BR><BR>****<BR>connect.sh<BR>****<BR>#!/bin/bash<BR># script to
connect to mobile network<BR>echo "Running Sakis3g"<BR>sleep 10<BR>sudo
/usr/bin/modem3g/sakis3g connect --console APN=CUSTOM_APN <BR>CUSTOM_APN='apn'
APN_USER='user' APN_PASS='password' USBDRIVER=option <BR>USBMODEM=12d1:1003
OTHER=USBMODEM MODEM=OTHER<BR>****<BR>This normally works from a power on but
often doesn't from a reboot.<BR>I would like to debug the boot sequence to try
and make this more reliable <BR>however I'm not sure how to enable/capture the
debug output, I can't see <BR>anything in /var/logs.<BR>Is there any debug I can
enable or re-direct the console output to a file ?<BR><BR>I have found that the
3g modem is not always listed in lsusb.<BR><BR>I also experience random
hangs/crashes and a power cycle is required to <BR>recover. I'm not sure if this
is hardware related. I have a 2A power adapter <BR>and a powered USB hub that
has the 3g modem, wifi adapter, mouse and <BR>keyboard connected to it. The RPi
will run for varying lengths of time.<BR>Any debug help would be much
appreciated.<BR>Best Regards,<BR>Mike
