This seems to be the case for me in terms of the device not getting 
detected. I tried 2.4.22-1.2140 and it doesn't show it being detected in 
dmesg thou it does list in the hardware browser once loaded. I'm 
downloading 2149 now to see if that will help and I've tried aranj's 
2.6.1. Any other suggestions?

Thanks,
Steve
