# eg25-manager(8)

a daemon for managing the Quectel EG25 modem found on the Pine64 PinePhone.

## NAME

eg25-manager - a daemon for managing the Quectel EG25 modem found on the Pine64 PinePhone.

## SYNOPSIS

**eg25-manager** \[-v\] \[-c config\_file\]

## OPTIONS

- **-v**

  Show the version number and quit.

- **-c**

  User configuration file, defaults to the device configuration file in /etc/eg25-manager.

## FILES

Configurations are loaded from:

- •

  **/etc/eg25-manager/\<compatible\>.toml**: User-provided overrides (optional)

- •

  **/usr/share/eg25-manager/\<compatible\>.toml**: Default configuration (required)

eg25-manager will search these folders for files named after the value of the compatible device-tree property (with the .toml file extension) and use the first matching file in each directory. If no matching default configuration is found, eg25-manager will exit with an error message.

Values from the user-provided overrides will take priority over values stored in the default configuration. Only changed values must be stored as user overrides, so eg25-manager can fall back to the default configuration as often as possible.

The file names eg25-manager will check can be listed using:

```
xargs -0 printf '%s.toml\n' < /proc/device-tree/compatible
```
