[Bug 554099] Re: Qualcomm Gobi 2000 3G (gobi_loader/qcserial) broken

[darren]

Still a bit of a pfaff to get this working.

Just installed Lucid on a Lenovo x100e netbook with the Gobi 2000 WWAN
device and followed these steps:

Enable all backports and proposed repos, do all updates - not working
Copy the following firmware files:
    c:\program files\QUALCOMM\Images\Lenovo\UMTS\apps.mbn
    c:\program files\QUALCOMM\Images\Lenovo\UMTS\amss.mbn
    c:\program files\QUALCOMM\Images\Lenovo\6\UQCN.mbn
to /lib/firmware/gobi - not working
Install linux-backports-modules-wwan-lucid-generic and reboot - not working
Add my user to dialout (and every other group in Users and Groups) - not working
Run /lib/udev/gobi_loader -2000 /dev/ttyUSB0/ /lib/firmware/gobi and killall modem-manager - working after I right click on network-manager and enable mobile broadband.

I now have to do the final step every time I want to use 3G.

Added to the issues of the laptop locking solid with the default radeon
driver, no wireless by default, it's a bit of a sorry state with this
laptop running Ubuntu at the moment.
