> This bug was first reported as part of bug 138583 and now is moved into its own bug.
>
> Basically, when a WM5 smartphone was plugged into its USB cradle, the establishment of the RNDIS session to communicate with the phone would fail because of a driver bug negotiating an improper frame size with the device. the dccm daemon would therefore not detect the phone and no dialog (pls or other) was possible.
>
> The synce project proposed a patch that would make things work (http://synce.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/synce/trunk/patches/linux-2.6.22-rndis_host-wm5.patch) but it was considered inadequate by the linux people. As this patch is unofficial and not part of any distribution, it would therefore require the user to recompile its kernel which is not really friendly for the average desktop user.
>
> I submitted a first proposal to fix the problem in a more appropriate way (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8094#c37) but it was considered too much intrusive.
>
> I then submitted a second proposal (http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-usb%40vger.kernel.org/msg01608.html) that should be integrated in the Linux kernel tree very soon (I hope).
