I just started reading _all_ the comments to all the hits I got at the device list when searching for "mp3" and got the jackpot: http://www.qbik.ch/usb/devices/showdev.php?id=1974 The previously absolutely not-working "mpX Rome 256MB" was working within seconds (listen up Laurent, this might fix your prob as well): Just use mtools: - map /dev/sda1 to c (or whatever letter you like) in /etc/mtools.conf: # drive c: file="/dev/sda1" - change the permissions on /dev/sda1: # chmod ugo+rwx /dev/sda1 - plug in the player - point Konqueror to: floppy:/c - and just drag&drop the files onto the player - (or use the command line mtools instead of Konq) - unplug the player and have fun And I filled up the player almost to it's limits - no data loss. It now works flawless with W2K (with the Manager app and as a storage device) and Linux, so swapping files is no problem at all. (well, the settings are not persistent, but I guess that's a bug in the firmware) -- Powered by SuSE 8.1pro - KDE 3.0.3 - KMail 1.4.3 At least, try asking smart questions: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html Netiquette is easy: http://learn.to/edit_messages ...and you'll get flame-free answers in no time. ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.
