Hi everyone, after having a good browse through these forums and the net I'm still having trouble locating a fix for my sony ericsson z750i not being recognised via usb cable. I don't have bluetooth or infra-red on my computer so it's the only way I can transfer data across 
Interestingly, the phone recognises it has been plugged into a computer (in fact, it's far better detection wise than in Vista), but after using the lsusb and dmesg | tail commands I got a few interesting messages etc.
Here's the link to what I've been following so far -

I'll put the output of both of these below for you:

'Unable to enumerate', 'device not accepting address' and 'error' is looking bleak, so I hope there's a fix out there (since I just bought a new memory card for my phone and it's basically useless if I can't put anything on it!)
Thanks for your help in advance, I'll continue to see if I can find a fix on my own as well.
