** Description changed: Gobi is a type of WWAN 3G wireless chipset made by Qualcomm and shipped in some notebooks (eg. ThinkPads). It is particularly notable for being able to act as both a CDMA2000 and a GSM/WCDMA transceiver. The mode is selected by the firmware loaded on initialisation. The device shows up over USB initially as a dumb, firmware loading endpoint, at which point udev rules poke 'gobi_loader" to find and inject the relevant firmware, after which the device reinitialises and shows up as a standard USB serial interface endpoint. http://www.codon.org.uk/~mjg59/gobi_loader/ Unfortunately, the version in Ubuntu 10.04 does not work out of the box, apparently requiring some degree of unspecified patching/customisation. Kernel patches needed: http://www.codon.org.uk/~mjg59/gobi_loader/kernel_patches/ Regression from Ubuntu 9.10. + + Userspace component also needs syncing from: + + http://packages.debian.org/unstable/admin/gobi-loader
