    connect the PB to the desktop and then go to device manager and under network devices make sure the rim network device is enabled

    I can't remember what settings I had to set, but I had no trouble getting the Playbook connected to my Windows 7 PC over USB. I am now running Beta 0S2 on the Playbook, and I can still connect up. The PC asks me for the password each time. So, it can be done. I have ripped a few DVDs and transferred to the PB.

    jailbreak failed /tmp/setuidgid

    Yeah im struggling with the same problem, I think I've tried everything, Doesn't even show up as connected device. The only thing that shows up is an icon in Network Connections for Playbook.
