Huh, lsusb shows the usb-serial cable hooked up. 
cat /proc/bus/usb/devices shows this

T:  Bus=02 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=02 Cnt=02 Dev#=  4 Spd=12  MxCh= 0
D:  Ver= 1.10 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS=64 #Cfgs=  1
P:  Vendor=067b ProdID=2303 Rev= 3.00
S:  Manufacturer=Prolific Technology Inc.
S:  Product=USB-Serial Controller
C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=80 MxPwr=100mA
I:* If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 3 Cls=ff(vend.) Sub=00 Prot=00 Driver=pl2303
E:  Ad=81(I) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS=  10 Ivl=1ms
E:  Ad=02(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS=  64 Ivl=0ms
E:  Ad=83(I) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS=  64 Ivl=0ms

So, I tried modprobe usbserial vendor=0x067b product=0x2303
which happened without an error message. But,using BitPim it sees the
cable but cannot access the phone. Here's the rub, if I hotplug the
cable in, X freezes up and I have to hard-reboot via shiny red button. 
Then I plug the phone in, switched off, and no detect. Powered up the
phone, still no detect. I went into the phone setup and made sure it was
selected as a serial connection, that is correct?? It also had USB
connection, which I may have to try. But the serial section lists 3
speeds: 19200, 115200, 230408 for the phone (Verizon LG XV4650) So, I
have to dig for that. Is there a usb-serial module specific to
cell-phones or does anyone have a clue where I should start? Ric
