Comment 3 for bug 621743

same problem here, adding a few debug lines to gobi loader shows that it simply hangs after sending the "QDL protocol server request"

=====
starting goby loader
Init the device
Init step 2
Init done, sending request
QDL protocol server request sent

--> freeze, no more output

trying with a 2.6.35-22 kernel gobi loader doesn't hang and it immediately continue by uploading the firmware to the device.
