Anyhow the main problem stems from trying to run modem_run -v 2 -m -f mgmt.o (also tried with the -s option) and i can't get it to upload the firmware. The only real clue is in dmesg where i get these lines :-
usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout usbdevfs: USBDEVFS_BULK failed dev 2 ep 0x85 len 512 ret -110 usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout usbdevfs: USBDEVFS_BULK failed dev 2 ep 0x5 len 991 ret -110
Hardware timeouts smell like irq/ioaddr problems. This might be a solution:
