Public bug reported:
I am using Karmic 9.10. This is a regression in hardware detection.
I don't know which package is involved, possibly hal?
I plugged in my Philips Skypephone into a USB slot. What happens usually
(in Intrepid and Jaunty) is that the phone is detected and an icon
appears on the desktop. Also, when I open Nautilus File Browser the
phone is visible as a drive. I can then open up Skype and select the
Philips Skypephone as my Sound Device. This did not happen in Karmic -
no icon appears, it does not appear in Nautilus and I can't find it as
an option when I open up Skype.
The device appears in lsusb and dmesg.
This is an important issue for me, I may reinstall Intrepid because I
need my cheap Skype phone calls and I don't want to have to buy another
Skypephone or headset.
