You need this set when rooting the phone, but otherwise it should not be required (wasn't on the droid or my former LG Ally, etc., for simple mounting/file exchange). Oddly, I rebooted (couldn't kill the several lsusb processes, even as root, so, a reboot seemed reasonable), and now it is mounting fine. I also switched to a different usb port. I wonder if the usb ports on my case are faulty (not the ones in the back, directly part of the mobo, but there are two in front of the case, connected to the mobo via a wire; connected to these, the phone will power up/charge battery, but not mount. Atm, it's connected to a usb port on my monitor, oddly, with the monitor then connected to the mobo usb ports in back, and all is working). Now to get this thang rooted... ./tony -- http://www.tonybaldwin.me all tony, all the time! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
