Connecting Android Development Board to Ubuntu 11.04

I recently received a development board from TI which is running Android on OMAP 3621 and I am trying to connect it to my machine through USB. The board says Connected in Debugging Mode.

system@system-laptop:~$ lsusb |grep Google
Bus 002 Device 006: ID 18d1:0001 Google Inc.

On the board the USB debugging is ON and so is accept from Unknown Source. My .rule file for udev is as follows 

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="18d1", ATTRS{idProduct} =="0001",SYMLINK+="android_adb", MODE="0666"

After this I restarted udev and adb servers using sudo. Still it does not detect the dev board, but it detects my HTC Desire. I have tried Googling but in vain, and I have even tried adding the vendor ID in the adb_usb.ini file but still in vain.

What could I be missing?

You should grep Texas Instruments and use that ID I guess

Adb does not yet know about the vendor id, so it will not connect to your device.

You only have to add the id to the file ~/.android/adb.ini and then it will work.

It should be a plain text file with all vendor id's of all android devices you work with listed one per line. If you only want your TI-board it should contain the single line:

0x18d1

If this does not work (it should, but...) try a google search on adb.ini.
