Weird. On my debian box, when I plug in the ipaq to the usb cradle
(with wince running on the ipaq, not angstrom), I see in my kernel logs
that debian immediately loads both ipaq and usb-serial modules and udev
creates /dev/ttyUSB0 and says the pda is attached to that.

Of cousrse, if I have angstrom or familiar loaded on the h2200, then
I don't get the above, but it loads usbnet and cdc_subset instead and
starts the usbnetworking.
So I'm not sure what's happening with your desktop. Does it also load
the usbserial_generic module? Otherwise there must be some problem with
udev???
