--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : ModemManager
Product : Fedora 12
Version : 0.3
Release : 9.git20100409.fc12
URL : http://www.gnome.org/projects/NetworkManager/
Summary : Mobile broadband modem management service
Description :
The ModemManager service provides a consistent API to operate many different
modems, including mobile broadband (3G) devices.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
This update fixes issues with PIN checking, device recognition, network access
detection, Bluetooth DUN and PAN, and corrects updates to /etc/hosts when the
hostname has changed. It also adds support for graphical mobile broadband
status updates of access technology and signal strength, and allows the user to
set roaming and 2G/3G preference for GSM networks. It also fixes issues with
Enterprise WiFi networks continually requesting passwords, an issue with
automatically connecting WiFi networks on resume, and failures to connect to
Blackberry devices using Bluetooth DUN.
