(Get the code!)
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.
