Note that the Google engineer making the clarifications (which were already present in the article I referenced) makes it clear MTP only is an ICS thing for any device (such as the GN) which does not have external unmountable storage. Anything declared as internal storage and not unmountable will only be usable via MTP (which is why the GN is MTP only) and so it remains of interest for some sane solution to be able to access the disk of any unmountable data volume of an ICS device... Also anything that ends up having a reliance on access to the data at the same time as the connected host would require this too. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
