What modem/phone are you using ?? I've seen that problem with enfora usb modems (EDG1228) where the usb firmware of the modem is not compatible with linux (the usb is detected as cp2101 driver).
check this: [18998.913582] usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3 [18999.081354] usb 1-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice [18999.301150] usbcore: registered new interface driver usbserial [18999.301737] /build/buildd/linux-2.6.24/drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: USB Serial support registered for generic [18999.302437] usbcore: registered new interface driver usbserial_generic [18999.302448] /build/buildd/linux-2.6.24/drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: USB Serial Driver core [18999.320435] /build/buildd/linux-2.6.24/drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: USB Serial support registered for cp2101 [18999.320495] cp2101 1-1:1.0: cp2101 converter detected [18999.428314] usb 1-1: reset full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3 [18999.573088] usb 1-1: cp2101 converter now attached to ttyUSB0 [18999.573126] usbcore: registered new interface driver cp2101 [18999.573133] /build/buildd/linux-2.6.24/drivers/usb/serial/cp2101.c: Silicon Labs CP2101/CP2102 RS232 serial adaptor driver v0.07 r...@einstein:~# Even though it said tty is attached to ttyUSB0 I'm unable to connect to the modem with any terminal app (ie cu, minicom, vdial). So far I was unable to make them work.
