Worked it out with help from a friend. Can only configure the BlackBerry to present as mass storage while attached and charging, otherwise the option not available. My friend's Ubuntu box makes it easier. Just plugin the BlackBerry and it automatically displays the menu: USB Drive, Sync Media, Charge Only. I guess it has different/better udev rules. Thanks, Mike == Configure as mass storage Plugin BlackBerry (Goes into automatic charging mode) Settings > Device > Storage > [Menu] > Enable USB Mass Storage Unplug BlackBerry == Use as mass storage Plugin BlackBerry Displays menu "BlackBerry device is plugged in:" USB Drive Sync Media Charge Only Select "USB Drive" Mass storage auto mounted and desktop runs Nautilus.
