Re: which usb device to use (old kernel)

Thanks, that was just what I needed.  The phone is at a remote location and
I haven't gotten anyone there to get into its setup menu for me, but I
connected a different phone to a linux where I am with a newer kernel and
saw the same thing -  lssub -v only displayed a Mass Storage interface.  I
fiddled with the phone's settings, got it to display a Communications
interface via lsub, udev created /dev/ttyACM0 and it worked with gnokii.

So I told the people at the other location to figure out how to change a
phone to have a Communications interface, and to find me a linux with a 2.6
kernel and udev.
