sony-ericsson w300i dont connect

[Gilles Gravier]

Glad it works!

But... the tail -f /var/adm/messages ... you do before connecting the
phone... and you watch the output WHILE connecting the phone. :)

In any case, the fact that it works is great. These things (modern
phones with FLASH storage and EVDO modems) just tend to work nowadays
with modern operating systems like Ubuntu.
