Description Stefan Behte (RETIRED) gentoo-dev Security 2010-06-25 14:26:11 UTC 
gobi_loader is a firmware loader for Qualcomm Gobi USB chipsets. These devices appear in an uninitialised state when power is applied and require firmware to be loaded before they can be used as modems. gobi_loader adds a udev rule that will trigger loading of the firmware and make the modem usable. 

Hint: The gobi cards need kernel >= 2.6.35-rc3 (or a patched one) to be usable.
