No, it's just a leftover after the pseudo scsi disc. Configuration files for pppd and wvdial are included. I recommend you, however, to take a look at the configuration files regardless of your kernel version. You should find three /dev/ttyUSB* devices directly after you plug E220 into a usb port. No, on kernels newer than 2.6.19 both usb_storage.ko and usbserial.ko are aware of HUAWEI E220 modem and no further action needs to be taken. If you don't have any other USB serial devices connected to your PC at the moment, modem should be assigned to /dev/ttyUSB0 and the user interface device to /dev/ttyUSB1 If the udev works, you should find two ttyUSB* devices in your /dev directory (sometimes 3 if usb_storage.ko is not active).

This rule tells the system to ignore the pseudo SCSI CDROM with the drivers and assigns usbserial.ko driver tothe modem and a PC user interface device. What is this supposed to do on my system? Latest version 0x0008 works fine with SUSE 10.1, openSUSE 10.2, Fedora Core 5, Ubuntu 6.06, 6.10, 7.04, Mandriva Free2007Spring, and many many more! Check your system!

Simply download the package and do the following: Linux kernel versions prior to 2.6.20 have some problems with it, as the SCSI CDROM fakevolume with drivers for Microsoft systems gets automounted by usbstorage.ko module, preventing serial device /dev/ttyUSB0 from working properly. HUAWEI E220 is supported natively by Linux, over usbserial.ko (usbserial-generic) interface. HUAWEI E220 Workaround for kernels < 2.6.20
