[Bug 591840] [NEW] attaching a Nokia 5800 doesn't allow tethering

[Ralf Hildebrandt]

Public bug reported:

According to http://alandoyle.com/2010/03/11/tether-nokia-5800-as-a-3g-modem-on-ubuntu/
one has to attach the phone using USB, choose "PC-Suite" and voila, it works.

I and another guy are getting this in dmesg instead:

[212668.760104] usb 1-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 8
