To automatically load firmware copy /usr/local/etc/devd/gobi.conf.sample to
/usr/local/etc/devd/gobi.conf and adjust port, VID and PID to match your
device. To find VID and PID of the device look through the output of the
command: usbconfig dump_device_desc
The firmware for this device is not publicly downloadable. It should be
obtained separately and usually consists of 3 files: amss.mbn, apps.mbn and
uqcn.mbn which all should be placed in directory /boot/firmware/gobi. The
directory has to be created first if appropirate: mkdir -p /boot/firmware/gobi
Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

systuils/gobi_loader: Firmware Loader for Qualcomm Gobi USB Chipsets
FreeBSD trimmed version / port of the gobi_oader, originally from
http://www.codon.org.uk/~mjg59/gobi_loader which likely never worked on
FreeBSD. This will load the firmware of the GOBI u3g parts on insertion.
