Public bug reported:

The ipwwireless_cs driver
(http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/jikos/ipwireless_cs/) is
driving USB GPRS modems. It is quite widely used in Czech Republic (for
"T-Mobile 4G" connection), South Africa
(https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IpwirelessPcmcia) and perhaps
elsewhere for internet access. Many people would appreciate this driver
being "backported" to hardy modules, especially given it is a LTS
edition and will be used for long.

The driver doesn't affect any other part of kernel and has been
intergrated in 2.6.25-rc1 into vanilla tree
(http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/jikos/ipwireless_cs/README).

I will be glad to be of any help (test the build and so on), don't
hesitate to ask.
