My new cellphone charges thru USB cable, dmesg says, "usb 1-10: new full speed
USB device using ohci_hcd and address 9" when it is connected. What is this
telling me about how I might access the linux file system on the phone? How
do I discover the/a device name to use? Thanks for guidance to the confused.

I'm coming in late and I don't actually have an answer to your
question, but I do have a cell-phone/linux oddness that might help you
get a handle on the idea.

I have an LG-VX4500 phone with the USB data cable. If I boot linux
with the phone plugged in, it actually tries to use the phone as my
boot volume. Needless to say, it doesn't work...

If I plug the phone in after boot, I can use the phone as a modem with
no drivers (aside from mgetty) required. It handles like a standard
AT modem, at least to an extent.
