ADB problem

[Husker_fan_]

Using Ubuntu 11.10 and cant get adb to see my bionic when its booted. It sees it when its in recovery though. Tried all the modes, made sure usb debugging is checked etc. Have no problem with the computer seeing my connection or pc mode, mass storage, etc. Just adb? Any suggestions? I've been working on this for 2 days and am googled out! A bit of added info.....have an incredible and adb sees it just fine.
It does show the device, just offline.

Edit. Got the usb tether to work. I have two boxes to check for usb tethering, just noticed the one under the settings menu. So 1 dumb oversight solved. Still no luck with the adb though.

in order to use adb on the bionic, you will need to be in PC Mode.

Connect bionic via USB
Toggle PC Mode
open terminal

cd /PATH-TO-ANDROID-SDK/platform-tools
./adb kill-server
./adb start-server
./adb devices

It should show up.
