lsusb output should change when plugging in the player.
Does it work as root?
The output from lsusb remains the same, no visible output, with or without the player attached. This behavior is the same when I execute lsusb as root and with -v. For reference, I also plugged in a USB drive and a multi-card reader. The output of lsusb does not change with these. There is no output when run as user or root (Perhaps it likes to query /proc/bus/usb but doesn't see anything because udev seems to be placing things in /sys?). They show up in the output from lsscsi as expected. While trying to think of anything else that might be able to feed me information about what's plugged in, I finally saw lshal and tried it. Using that, I found the player's sysfs path. Maybe it's a system configuration issue? The instructions on libmtp say to just place its libmtp.rules file in /etc/udev/rules.d for everything to work. I'm guessing SuSE's udev rules are set up differently than other distributions, and I'll need to write one. More searching about is needed. Thanks for the reply. -Adam __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
