Having looked at the source, I assume that those drivers / kernel modules are actually supposed to be a replacement for the firmware. However, I'm apparently too stupid to get them working. I compiled both modules for my ThinkPad W510 as described in the README files in N0383.Gobi2000Drivers_06182010.tar.gz and also have a /dev/ttyUSB0 device, now, but lsusb still yields:
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 05c6:9204 Qualcomm, Inc. … instead of 9205. And the network-manager doesn't find any WWAN device. Unfortunately, there isn't any contact information on codeaurora.org, either, so we're on our own I guess… -- [PATCH] Qualcomm Gobi 2000 3G (gobi_loader/qcserial) broken in 10.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/554099 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
