I've just looked at these wiki articles. It seems, MTP is the protocoll interfacing the device, while GVFS is the file manager integration. My MTP-related packages are: $ LANG=C pacman -Ss mtp | grep "\[inst" | grep -v libcddb extra/gvfs-gphoto2 1.38.1-1 (gnome) [installed] extra/gvfs-mtp 1.38.1-1 (gnome) [installed] extra/libmtp 1.1.16-1 [installed] GVFS is used by Gnome and obviously also by XFCE4 (with Thunar). So, in my case, the architecture seems to be like this: ++ + Thunar | +---++ | | v ++ + GVFS | +---++ | | v ++ +--+ + MTP +-->+ Android-Device | +---++ +--+

I'm using an iPad and share data with my Linux PC either via email or by a Windows 7 guest running in Virtualbox. Since Windows is a guest and gvfs isn't installed and IIRC the iPad's photo and video folder could be accessed even without running iTunes, it must be possible to access this folder directly via Linux without gvfs. However, I need to run iTunes in the Windows guest, since I need access to audio production apps' file sharing. Perhaps there is something provided by e.g. KDE, that allows to access an Android filesystem.

But nothing changes, if I attach one. So, why are there all those question marks? Should it be possible to have some "unknown users/groups" accessing parts of my system? Kind regards Peter
