I have recently bought a Asus Transformer Prime which gives no feedback
on my Kubuntu 11.10 laptop when I hook it up in MTP mode. Mass storage
does not seem to be one of the options for USB though that might be
because I did not have any external memory hooked up when I connected
it. Using the instructions a OMG ubuntu I was able to mount the system
quite quickly.

I also own a Samsung Galaxy S. Though this still has mass storage
support for the built-in memory, I tried hooking it up in MTP mode for a
change. Something actually did pop-up and seemed to give some access to
the phone. It seems however that I did not have access to all the files
as I do seem to have on Windows.

I do hope that this can be included in the next release of (K)Ubuntu
because a lot of people will be running into this now. If Ubuntu truly
wants to remain a distro for the not-so-technical users things like this
should really  be picked up early.

@w-troop: you might have to install the package mtp-tools (i.e. execute
'sudo apt-get install mtp-tools' ). Though I would still except some
output even if it is not installed. You could try executing just 'mtp-
detect' and see if you can find the values yourself.
