Hey folks,
I recently installed the kernal update to 2.6.32.25. Unfortunately this broke the working solution with the 2.6.32.24 kernel.
Meaning I cannot patch the kernel modules like described in #32, which btw always worked fine for me :|
So I went to install the backports. This unfortunately does also not work. Even after I recreated the missing /etc/firmware/gobi dir and copying the necessary files into it.
Looking into the log I find:

usb_wwan: disagrees about version of symbol module_layout

Furthermore loading the qcserial module manually returns:

$ sudo modprobe qcserial
FATAL: Error inserting qcserial (/lib/modules/2.6.32-25-generic-pae/updates/wwan/qcserial.ko): Invalid module format

Could anyone give me a heads up what this means?

thx in advance
Lapis
