Not that we can tell. Could there be password-protection on the tethering level only? How does one find out.... apologies - don't mean for this to slide into a Blackberry 101 :-) I installed your udev rules from http://www.mail-archive.com/barry-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg02588.html on both the Fedora and Ubuntu Fedora improved, finally echoing back stuff that identifies the device, and also allowing me to do barrybackup again (that went away for some time, prior). I still have not dialed up on Fedora, still a fumbling newbie. Ubuntu is still "not budging" -- no sign of device recognition (after installing your udev rules -- btw, do I need to reboot?), still imposing the usb_storge module, removing the latter does not help. a. > -----Original Message----- > From: Andrew <nos...@flight.us> > Date: Thu, 18 Feb 2010 18:00:38 > To: Barry project development discussion<barry-devel@lists.sourceforge.net> > Subject: Re: [Barry-devel] compile failure > > On Thu, Feb 18, 2010 at 02:41:27PM -0800, Theodore Charles III wrote: > > I have a Tour, and it works great with barry.
