you are being incredibly vague.

I just got the same phone and plugged it into my USB and it listed all
pertinent information in /var/log/messages - not that it was really
necessary...

if what you want is to be able to transfer files from you Linux system
to the SD card on the Motorola Android, you need to 'allow' it on the
Android by tapping the USB symbol in the status bar once you have
connected it to your computer and choosing 'Mount'  If you don't choose
'Mount' - it only will charge your phone but will not allow a computer
to access the storage
