[Bug 42578] 2.6.1[3-5] doesn't support merlin u530 cards dues to broken ppp support

[skwashd]

Public bug reported:

Affects: linux-source-2.6.15 (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed


Description:
My Merlin U530 UTMS data card works fine with breezy and a self compiled
2.6.16 kernel, but not dapper with an official ubuntu 2.6.15 kernel.

It has been fixed in 2.6.16.  I tried to back port the changes to
2.6.15, and ended up with source soup that wouldn't compile - not
surprising with my C skills.  Maybe someone else can do this better than
I can, as it would be nice to have my data card working with a stock
dapper kernel.
