I found something: had to configure the phone from USB as modem device to USB as storage, to access the micro-SD card. This seemed to work (and will probably allow me to access a card when I get one and install it) and identified the card as scsi removable device sde. Also found a generic device sg4. How do I try to access this device?
The generic device is probably some sort of control - not sure what it might be for. As an example - a tape-library usually has a generic device to controlling the loading and unloading of tapes. Your reconfiguration from modem to storage device sounds like thr right thing do to, especially as it made the card come up as sde.
Mounting does not work as it is not a block device. I have a feeling this is simple because I used to have to access a scsi scanner as a sg-generic device.
It is to do with what your phone presents as options to the USB driver. What does "lsusb" say now?
Does not specifically identify it, or does not recognize any vendor or product ID. Output: Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 001 Device 012: ID 5678:1050 Bus 001 Device 002: ID 041e:401c Creative Technology, Ltd WebCam NX [PD1110] Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Dmesg says device found at 12, so I assume the second line is the phone, but this may come back to it not being a listed device in the first place. I will probably simply have to wait until a future kernel includes the device. And perhaps this is all to the better: I am questioning whether I should have access to something I understand so little of and whether I really want to "tinker" with it anyway. I may get bitten by the "a little knowledge..." thing, a common occurrance in the past but which also often resulted in a little more knowledge. Richard
