I don't have Iphone actually, but you can try as a root
# modprobe usb_storage
and check if it knows the Iphone with dmesg or lsusb

Yup, I have that loaded (Vmware needs it). Plug it in, and all I see in /var/log/messages is this: Dec 13 22:33:51 gotroot kernel: usb 5-3: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 47 Dec 13 22:33:52 gotroot kernel: usb 5-3: new device found, idVendor=05ac, idProduct=1292 Dec 13 22:33:52 gotroot kernel: usb 5-3: new device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3 Dec 13 22:33:52 gotroot kernel: usb 5-3: Product: iPhone Dec 13 22:33:52 gotroot kernel: usb 5-3: Manufacturer: Apple Inc.

Digicam can't see any photos on it. Note: it mounts in windows as a read only device. Steve Jobs is extremely paranoid that someone might put a photo on there without going thru his lame Itunes interface. In the same linux machine, I run Vmware. In Vmware I run a Windows XP virtual machine. That virtusl machine can read photos off the iphone, so there is no hardware issue anywhere along the way. -- ----------JSA--------- Someone stole my tag line, so now I have this rental. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
