Only as an update: As of today, it still doesn't work out of the box. The workaround fixes it.
Allow me a bit of comment that sounds sarcastic, and yet bugs me as an oldtimer with 20 years on Linux: I always advocate FOSS. Should someone hit this snag, how can I honestly defend this shortcoming? Asking Aunt Tilly to search Google and end with her using the CL to vi a parameter in a file? Could I blame her on going back to the monopolist? I would defend my beloved Linux, were she the first to encounter this. Alas, it has been around for > 5 years. And I am afraid, not only this particular mobile phone will simply not work as mass storage. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/755342 Title: Samsung Xcover 271 B2710 mass storage does not mount automatically To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-modeswitch/+bug/755342/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
