Comment 8 for bug 644898

Thomas,

Thanks for the info on the patch - very interesting.

The main problem for me is that it is impossible to use the on-board 3g mobile broadband modem without toshset.

However, on my system if I enter the following command in a terminal, the response is:

mark@mark-PORTEGE-R600:~$ lsmod | grep toshiba
toshiba_bluetooth 2223 0
toshiba_acpi 10178 0

Now I'm no expert, but to me this means that the kernel module toshiba_acpi is in fact loaded - or am I wrong?

If toshiba_acpi is loaded, then does this mean that some other module is required in order to run toshset?

I'm happy to try and compile a kernel myself, but I'm not sure what patch is required to enable toshset?
