Comment 154 for bug 446146

Just for the record:

The Ubuntu kernel 2.6.31-14.48 is the Karmic Koala final iso version and does not work with E169.

The kernel complied by Andy is 2.6.31-13.44 (post #15) and it has Ben's patch applied -- it works for me.

Kernels 2.6.31-5 and later (2.6.32 from kernel.org, for example) have Ben's patch applied but have not been released by Ubuntu as yet. Again, they work for my E169 and Ben's modem, see earlier posts.

If in doubt about the patch, check for Ben's name in the release note with each kernel.

PS. Confusing, too, because E169 (as labelled) is identified as E620 in usb logs and using lsusb.
