Moving it out of the way is the solution. How can I update > the blacklist myself? It's based on udev rules, so look at /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/77-mm-usb-device-blacklist.rules. You can copy the file to /etc/udev/rules.d, remove the existing devices, and add your device there by USB VID and PID. When you plug it in again, ModemManager will then ignore it. What is the VID/PID again so that we can add it to the upstream blacklist?
