[Bug 446146] Re: Huawei E169 USB dongle not working with kernel 2.6.31-12.40

It's incredibly fiddly, but I can eventually get my Huawei E220 modem
going by using this method which I used years ago with some earlier
version of Ubuntu...

sudo rmmod usb-storage
sudo modprobe usbserial vendor=0x12d1 product=0x1003

I completely depend upon my 3g connection.  If I'd performed a fresh
install over my Jaunty or upgraded to Karmic I'd have been left up the
creek.

I don't think an average user would either want or be capable of
resolving a connection problem like this, and there are MANY 3g users in
Ireland.  This would be a disaster if left unfixed in the final release.
