Qualcomm Gobi firmware loading
Shortly after I posted this entry on the qualcomm modem driver, Alexander Shumakovitch posted a shell script to do the loading. I've turned this into a C app and added checksumming support and udev integration, and now things seem to be working happily. There aren't many device IDs in the qcserial driver upstream right now, but I've just sent a patch to add a bunch. If you have a device this works for and you had to add the ID manually, let me know and I'll update things. You can get it here.
