Perhaps there was something I installed on advise here, but I can't 
find any notes on it.


Anyone have the magic goo for accessing your phone on F22?


Mine actually works better with F22 and Android 5.1.  It really didn't 
work for crap under any Fedora  21 and Android 4.anything.


For my LG, I just plug it in, unlock it, double click on the icon on 
the left and I see the phone and the SDcard. I also am running XFCE.


I think you need libmtp and gvfs-mtp and all the associated 
dependencies installed for it to work, however. Not sure what else.


ah, those were the rpms I needed to install.  libmtp was already there, 
but not gvfs-mtp.  Plus it took a reboot for it to start working.


Now, if I knew how to access the phone from the command line, I could 
start using cp and rsync, not just Thundar...
