Public bug reported:
in older versions of Kubuntu the Huawei ETS2288 CDMA modem could be made to
work with a udev rules file - not ideal or intuitive but it worked. in 8.04
this is not longer the case. I though I had it working in 7.10 but yesterday I
installed this on an old computer and failed to connect my modem so perhaps I
remembered wrong or perhaps it worked after an upgrade from 7.04 but not on a
fresh install.
For details of the error I am getting see

This is a major problem in Tanzania (and other parts of East Africa) as these
modems are proveded by the local phone company and is therefore an important
way of getting internet (the only way for some people although mobile phone
companies provide a service as well)
