I also had this issue this month. The 2.6 versions of the kernel have support for the device. I've used it to access my K700's modem over the serial line. You'll need some software to transfer files, something that can read OBEX data from the serial line. Do a Google search.

This is my 'dmesg' when i put the DSS-25 in the USBO port ( Ubuntu Hoary, kernel 2.6.10-5-686)

ftdi_sio 2-1:1.0: FTDI FT232BM Compatible converter detected
usb 2-1: FTDI FT232BM Compatible converter now attached to ttyUSB0

This is my 'cat /var/log/messages'

Aug 2 20:39:38 Centrino kernel: usb 2-1: USB disconnect, address 2
Aug 2 20:39:38 Centrino kernel: FTDI FT232BM Compatible ttyUSB1: FTDI FT232BM Compatible converter now disconnected from ttyUSB1
Aug 2 20:39:38 Centrino kernel: ftdi_sio 2-1:1.0: device disconnected
Aug 2 20:39:46 Centrino kernel: usb 2-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3
Aug 2 20:39:46 Centrino kernel: ftdi_sio 2-1:1.0: FTDI FT232BM Compatible converter detected
Aug 2 20:39:46 Centrino kernel: usb 2-1: FTDI FT232BM Compatible converter now attached to ttyUSB0
Aug 2 20:39:46 Centrino usb.agent[12360]: ftdi_sio: already loaded

So i guess it will work. Haven't tried it, but it looks good.
