How sure are you that drivers for the Droid exist? From what I
remember, it's an Android-based smartphone that's been available for
about a month.

I would expect that it was recognised in some way by the USB drivers,
but I don't know what driver would be attached to it. What is the
output of `dmesg` after you have plugged it in?

What I wouldn't expect is that moto4linux would be able to speak to
the Droid - it's different to every other Motorola phone that I know
of, so I would expect it to speak a different language.
