Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: rhythmbox
Ubuntu Hardy Heron 8.04 (fully updated as of Wed Feb 20 02:51:20 UTC 2008)
Rhythmbox version 0.11.4 (0.11.4-0ubuntu6)
libmtp7 (0.2.5-1ubuntu1)
The MTP plugin fails to open a connection my device, I believe due to improper
permissions somewhere. When rhythmbox is run as root, the plugin loads and
connects to the device allowing me to transfer songs and browse my library. the
mtp-tool mtp-detect is able to open a connection with my device as a normal
user and does not require root permissions. When I run rhythmbox with $
rhythmbox -D mtp the following is outputted:
LIBMTP_Get_First_Device: No Devices Attached
Rhythmbox: could not connect to socket
Rhythmbox: No such file or directory
thanks
