My details:

  • Thinkpad T410
  • GOBI 2000 WWAN
  • Ubuntu 12.10 with Gnome3

In Ubnutu 12.04, Debian Squeeze and Debian Wheezy my GOBI2000 works like a charm but in Ubuntu 12.10 the connection wizard doesn't show up.

I configured the card the normal way:

  • added thnkpad ppa
  • install gobi-loader-tp
  • copied firmware files to /lib/firmware/gobi/ (the same files work under debian)

The card is correctly recognised and my SIM is detected too. the only problem is when I try to setup a new connection the wizard doesn't start. simply nothing happens.

Any idea?
