On my Thinkpad W510 I just installed http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.35-rc3-maverick/, downloaded the gobi_loader and copied the firmware from C:\Program Files (x86)\QUALCOMM\Images\Lenovo\UMTS to /lib/firmware/gobi and it magically worked after a reboot.
Two things I noticed:
- lsusb displayed "Bus 002 Device 003: ID 05c6:9205 Qualcomm, Inc." before and after the installation / reboot.
- I received a hell of a lot of error messages during start up though everything seems to work.

Thank you guys!
