From: Carl Fink on 5 May 2008 01:10 Barry is a project to allow sync and other functionality with RIM Blackberry phones. It's at barry.sourceforge.net The download page (http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=153722) includes DEB packages, but the program is not in any Debian distibution. I assume these are Ubuntu packages. Anyone have experience installing them? Recent kernels include a module that allows Blackberries to charge from the USB line (be detecting that they're plugged in and switching them to charge mode). It's berry_charge. I'm using kernel 2.6.22-3-k7. 'locate berry_charge' returns /lib/modules/2.6.22-3-k7/kernel/drivers/usb/misc/berry_charge.ko but 'modprobe berry_charge' returns FATAL: Module berry_charge not found. Eh? I'll be grateful for any assistance. -- Carl Fink nitpicking(a)nitpicking.com Read my blog at blog.nitpicking.com. Reviews! Observations!

So, is refusing to admit that a file which is clearly present in fact exists a bug in the kernel worth reporting? I may just go ahead and compile a custom kernl with berry_charge integral. -- Carl Fink nitpicking(a)nitpicking.com Read my blog at blog.nitpicking.com. Reviews! Observations!
