Hey all,
Just wondering if anybody on the list has the samsung galaxytab 10.1 and
has managed to connect it to as a mass storage device in ubuntu?
Apparently it connects as an mtp device?
I did manage to find:

But device wont mount, anybody else had any joy?
I have a galaxy tab 10.1, and the charging occurs through the adapter
connector USB cable, that is it charges from a USB socket. This same
USB cable can be plugged into my PC USB socket and it auto mounts (in
ubuntu 10.04.3) and the PC then indicates that a SAMSUNG_Android is
connected. The galaxy tab also indicates: USB connected, MTP-connected.
On the PC the file manager (location) of the mounted folder is
gphoto2://[usb:001,008]/
There are a lot of folders listed in the device, which is seen as
apparently a medium containing digital photos, however, in nautilus,
all the folders are shown as empty. Maybe permissions need to be
managed somehow but my trick of gksu nautilus produces a nautilus
which does not show this medium....
I have other versions of Ubuntu but have not yet tried it with them.
I found an app called AirDroid, which will allow any computer/OS to
wirelessly connect to GalaxyTab, its quite good and will upload large
files very quickly, but, I have yet to find a way to view the files on
the Tab, cant play vids, even though I have installed various Movie
players......how do you gksu nautilus so it works? I have even tried
sing a DVD player, but cant seem to get that to work either......what
DVD/Movie player do you use?
