i am no developer. i really only use adb to push tweaks to my Droid. i
do not have one site i go to for info, i just search google and the
forums (droidforums.net).

for those curious and also having the issue i had, here's the udev rule.


$ cat /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules
SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="22b8", ATTRS{idProduct} =="41db",
MODE="0666"

The idVendor and the idProduct is seen when running lsusb:

$ lsusb
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 22b8:41db Motorola PCS Motorola Droid (USB Debug)
