As others have mentioned in this thread, Honeycomb and onwards use MTP as the protocol for communicating with a USB host instead of MSC (mass storage class). I have not found a reliable MTP stack on linux, possibly because the MTP protocol itself is not very general, so treating the device as a filesystem is an abstraction mismatch. Instead, I have install an app called AirDroid on my tablet. This lets me communicate with the tablet via my browser, and supports transferring files that way. It does not give the flexibility of treating the device as a mounted filesystem, but works well enough for my purposes. I know that's not USB or bluetooth, but hopefully it is still suitable. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
