Previous versions of bugs with this driver were fixed in the past, but
unfortunatly, you are one of the lucky owners of a phone that causes
this problem :(

There is an open Novell bug for this issue, but the USB developers that
have tried to fix this in the past have had no luck at all (probably
because we don't have the device to test with).

What exact model of phone is this?

thanks,
