Huh, lsusb shows the usb-serial cable hooked up. cat /proc/bus/usb/devices shows this T: Bus=02 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=02 Cnt=02 Dev#= 4 Spd=12 MxCh= 0 D: Ver= 1.10 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS=64 #Cfgs= 1 P: Vendor=067b ProdID=2303 Rev= 3.00 S: Manufacturer=Prolific Technology Inc. S: Product=USB-Serial Controller C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=80 MxPwr=100mA I:* If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 3 Cls=ff(vend.) Sub=00 Prot=00 Driver=pl2303 E: Ad=81(I) Atr=03(Int.)

But,using BitPim it sees the cable but cannot access the phone. Here's the rub, if I hotplug the cable in, X freezes up and I have to hard-reboot via shiny red button. Then I plug the phone in, switched off, and no detect. Powered up the phone, still no detect. I went into the phone setup and made sure it was selected as a serial connection, that is correct?? It also had USB connection, which I may have to try. But the serial section lists 3 speeds: 19200, 115200, 230408 for the phone (Verizon LG XV4650) So, I have to dig for that. Is there a usb-serial module specific to cell-phones or does anyone have a clue where I should start?
