Thomas, unfortunately it depends on the firmware you have installed on your CS-15. The so called original firmware seems to work in Precise, when it did not work in 11.04. Then, what a pitty, a newer firmware installed about a year ago from nokia.com, do not work in 12.04 Precise, although it worked in 11.04!
Below I attached some sys.logs from two Live USB sessions (Ubuntu 12.04 (precise) 32-bit). # uname -a Linux ubuntu 3.2.0-23-generic-pae #36-Ubuntu SMP Tue Apr 10 22:19:09 UTC 2012 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux With the newer firmware the modeswitching is not happening (checked by lsusb ID stays as 0421::0610). With the "original" firmware the modeswitching is correctly happening (to 0421::0612). When not working, logged errors: kernel: [] sr1: CDROM (ioctl) error, command: Get event status notification 4a 01 00 00 10 00 00 00 08 00 kernel: [] sr: Sense Key : Hardware Error [current] kernel: [] sr: Add.

Also installation (like in Jaunty) from a .deb file shipped within the USB modem itself can not be done, because partition in the USB modem is not mounted automatically and cannot be mounted via Nautilus. This leaves user without internet connection.
