I am using Fedora 15 and I just plugged in my Samsung Vibrant Android phone, but my phone does not even give me the option to mount over USB like usual. It still charges though. Is there some configuration I need to do for Fedora?

Now it suddenly works so this may be some error not related to Fedora – Seth Hikari Jul 13 '11 at 21:28
Many phones expose their SD card over USB only when they're off (so that the PC and the phone aren't fighting over the contents). Maybe that's what you're observing? – Gilles Jul 13 '11 at 23:24

@Gilles: Android phones can unmount their SD card to let the PC use it. It should ask the user whenever the USB cable is plugged in. – phunehehe Jul 14 '11 at 2:44
