Description tracyde 2011-02-21 17:32:36 UTC
Created attachment 479966 [details]
Adds known Novatel Wireless device id's to qcserial.c

Description of problem:
Gobi 2000 chipset for the Google Cr-48 laptop and (and others with Gobi 2000 chipset packaged by Novatel Wireless) does not get enumerated by the qcserial module.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
latest Fedora 14 released 2.6 kernel as well as Fedora 15 kernel found at http://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/kyle/kernel/

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. `modprobe qcserial` on a computer that has a Novatel Wireless Gobi 2000 chipset
2. `ls /dev/ttyUSB0`
3.
  
Actual results:
the ttyUSB0 device does not get enumerated after the qcserial module gets loaded

Expected results:
the ttyUSB0 device should be created and accessible

Additional info:
I have attached a patch that adds the needed USB_DEVICE lines to the qcserial.c file.  The patch has been proven to work on the Google Cr-48 laptop.

The IDs (0x05c6, 0x9208) and (0x05c6, 0x920b) are already in 2.6.35. The other four are not upstream and you need to submit them there first.

Comment 2 Josh Boyer 2011-08-29 18:11:11 UTC
Derek, this still isn't fixed in the upstream kernel.  You should submit your patch to the linux-usb list and make sure to follow SubmittingPatches in the Documentation directory.

Comment 3 Josh Boyer 2012-04-30 21:18:41 UTC
All of these devices are in the driver now, as of 3.4-rc1.
