Comment 15 for bug 625110

I installed the debug package.

Sorry for being a noob but I am not getting any output for cat
/var/log/usb_modeswitch_* , even after enabling and disabling it a couple of
times. The output always says that 'no such file or directory'

the other output is:

grep usb_modeswitch /var/log/syslog
