I can't transfer any files to Creative Zen X-Fi from Ubuntu 9.10.
1. The player is mounted automatically, but when I open it the file browser shows the "gphoto2://[usb:002,002]/" location and I can't see any files on my player. I tried to open Rhythmbox, Banshee to no avail.
2. The latest version of Amarok doesn't have the Media Devices in the Settings, so I can't use it as well.
3. If I launch gnomad2 it reports the following error: "No jukeboxes found on USB bus". In the terminal it shows the following:
Code:
usb_claim_interface(): Device or resource busy
LIBMTP PANIC: Unable to initialize device
PDE device NULL.
4. Tried to use mtptools:
Code:
sudo apt-get install libmtp mtptools mtpfs
sudo mkdir /media/zen
sudo chmod 775 /media/zen
sudo mtpfs -o allow_other /media/zen
The player appear on my desktop as a regular drive, but when I try to access it I get the following error:
Code:
Transport endpoint is not connected
5. gnomad2 doesn't see my mplayer reporting the following error:
No jukeboxes found on USB bus.
I tried to create no-automount.fdi file in /etc/hal/fdi/policy with the following content:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!-- -*- SGML -*- -->
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
<device>
<match key="info.product" string="ZEN X-Fi">
<remove key="info.capabilities" type="strlist">portable_audio_player</remove>
</match>
</device>
</deviceinfo>
My player is no longer mounted automatically and gnomad 2.9.4 can see it. However I can't transfer any files with it. The right panel always stays empty.
I tried so many things, but still have no idea why using Creative Zen X-Fi in Ubuntu 9.10 is so complicated.
