The problem is to get the firmware to the device so it shows up as a modem. I have found some good sites that describes this. The best page is http://marc.info/?l=linux-usb&m=123874553630076&w=2 A solution to load firmeware is Goobi loader. http://www.codon.org.uk/~mjg59/gobi_loader/ uname -a Linux linux-wxjg 2.6.31-rc6-3-desktop #1 SMP PREEMPT 2009-08-17 21:11:11 +0200 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux rpm -q hal udev hal-0.5.13-2.5 udev-146-1.1 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Typically what happens is that the kernel driver will request firmware from userspace and load it internally. The script is good for demonstrating what needs to happen, though. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

What options do we have other than gobi loader and the nasty script to get this to work on SUSE? Does qcserial.ko require something else to put the firmware on the card? I still am trying to figure out how the qcserial.ko driver works and have found not much other than ubuntu post out on the web.

Since I don't have this hardware, it's completely untested. Hopefully my attempt at making a pm hook worked so that the module is unloaded and reloaded during suspend/resume. That will cause the firmware to be reloaded as well. One thing I _can't_ help you with is where to get the firmware itself. Let me know how it works out. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I've assigned bnc#611270 to Greg but I'm not sure if the changes will be integrated into an 11.3 update.
