No. But I found out thet START/STOP command is the problem. You can easily 
disable that by putting the following lines in unusual_devs.h

UNUSUAL_DEV( 0x8341, 0x2000, 0x0100, 0x0100, "Ego", "MP3 player",
             US_SC_SCSI, US_PR_BULK, NULL,
             US_FL_START_STOP | US_FL_FIX_INQUIRY),



This allows me to read and write from/to the device. Unfortunately it doesn't
want to play a file anymore when I write a new file to it under linux. I guess
there is some incompatibility between the device's FAT implementation and 
Linux's FAT implementation. I haven't found out what exactly causes the problem.

Thanks,

p2.
