+Firmware and loader for Qualcomm Gobi USB chipsets. These
+devices appear in an uninitialised state when power is applied and
+require firmware to be loaded before they can be used as modems.
+gobi_loader adds a udev rule that will trigger loading of the
+firmware and make the modem usable.
+
+Note:
+No carrier specific card configuration may work with `CARRIER=UMTS' (default)
+or `CARRIER=6' else pass `CARRIER=<sub-directory>' to the SlackBuild matching
+your carrier or reseller/franchiser which is using the carrier.
+It's strongly encouraged to explicit select a carrier.
+
+After installation restart your system or use
+`udevadm control --reload && udevadm trigger`.
+
+For carrier information, see README.SBo
