Nokia n95 on Linux as a Modem problem (bad CDC descriptors)

A few weeks ago I started using 3G technology but when I plugged my n95 as a modem (PC Suite) on my slackware box, I got the 'bad CDC descriptors' message and because of that my modem wasn't working.

After I got this message, I went to kernel src and found where that message was. after some research on the .c file, I tried commenting only one line that I was sure it was responsible for that message and problem.

Just FYI, I'm using slackware-current. Linux kernel is 2.6.24.5-smp

Below is the piece of code I changed

290 bad_desc:
291        dev_info(&dev->udev->dev, "bad CDC descriptors\n");
292        //return -ENODEV;  ***I PUT A COMMENT ON THIS LINE TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM***
293 }

I will also put the .c file on the same directory this document is located so people can take a look for further reference.

I know this is a lil' dirty but I will make a better change when I have time and patience for it.
