Hi Bluet0oth, I know this is a one year thread, I certainly hope you have found a solution on Ubuntu.
I'm trying to achieve the same thing;
Have you found a way to "create a loopback and bridge it to your network card so you can telnet/ssh/sdm to gns it?"

Check the GNS3 guide:
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gns-3/GNS3-0.5-tutorial.pdf?download

The only difference is that you need to run GNS3 as root in order to bind the cloud to the network interface that you have selected, or you can create a loopback interface in ubuntu with a static IP in order to bind it with the GNS3 Cloud.
