Obviously, what I'm missing is that CONFIG_USB_ACM is not defined in the current woody custom kernel. However, it is defined in the sarge/thinkpad kernel (2.6.8) but the phone is not recognized there at all. All that happens is a long delay after running lsusb and then nothing at all is displayed. I'll have to keep working at this. Augustine -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
