Pietro,

I no longer maintain the PPA and I believe the kernel packages in the PPA
have been overridden by subsequent versions published by the ubuntu team.
That means you're not getting the PPA kernel even though you're adding those
lines to your apt config. There are two options:

- Upgrade to karmic. The patch to support X060/X200 was accepted upstream a
few months ago, so karmic supports these modems unpatched.
- Downgrade your kernel packages down to the PPA version: sudo apt-get
install linux-image-2.6.28-15-generic=2.6.28-15.50~javi1

Then you can "pin" that version of the kernel so that apt-get never tries to
update it again:
