Description Priit Laes (IRC: plaes) 2012-03-01 13:06:22 UTC 
Modemmanager is quite unusable by default, unless user has created custom policykit override configuration that allows access to 'org.freedesktop.ModemManager.Device.Control' action.

Comment 2 Alexandre Rostovtsev (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-03-02 09:03:25 UTC 
For completeness, org.freedesktop.ModemManager.Contacts, org.freedesktop.ModemManager.SMS, and org.freedesktop.ModemManager.Location should probably also get the same treatment.
Comment 3 Alexandre Rostovtsev (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-03-27 09:12:29 UTC 
Should be fixed in 0.5.2.0.
