Something in a Bookworm upgrade just broke my cellular modem. It's not there anymore. Cold reboot and even battery removal does not bring it back. I booted to the old Mobian on the Megous multi boot and it worked fine.
I've found a method to restore the modem after every Bookworm boot, but it's a PITA:
1. I run Modem Manager GUI. It detects the modem and, after I activate it with my cellular carrier using the "Activate" button, I can place calls.
However, there is no signal strength / mobile icon in the the top status bar and the "Settings" ap does not have a "Mobile" entry / button so no mobile network management features are available.
2. To make everything work again,
does the trick!
