libmtp.rules
Note that in the default libmtp.rules on the amarok wiki, it does not have the
Sansa e280. It is the same line as the Sansa e260 which is included so I
duplicated it. I did not test weather libmtp.rules would autodetect the e280
out of the box.

amaraok status log
I've just run an strace on amarok and it was filled with errors relating to the fact that I have it installed under gnome and not under KDE. The strace reported a problem with sqllite along with KDE specific things (e.g. missing icons for example). So, I'm installing Kubuntu now and I'll see if that fixes some of these. Interesting to note that Amarok does appear to work under Ubuntu despite these errors. I've installed KDE 3.5.5 and it seems the dcop full list does not recognize the Sansa player despite mtp-detect finding it as well as the ubuntu device manager. I've upload the dcop kded mediamanager fullList output. Created attachment 19049 [details]
dcop kded mediamanager fullList - missing mtp
note : amarok in edgy was not compiled with MTP support because libmtp dident make it into main untill the feisty release schedule, thus this is not a bug its just not supported atm in edgy, I will backport this soon Well, the report is invalid then, according to comment #7. As far as my knowledge goes, this dcop command won't detect mtp devices, as they are not mass storage. Instead, you would have to go Amarok's config dialog and add a media device using the mtp plugin there. Thanks Brandon! Interesting to note that libmtp is in Universe but I guess it wasn't ready when you were compiling. Should I have filed this "bug" report in Malone against KDE or was it proper to file it on bugs.kde.org? Sometimes it's not clear to me with upstream products. Thanks! Hi guys I have a little problem with that sansa player too but while compiling I come along this: first the options given on the way by the svn build script: Used configuration -------------------- (Use --help to get information on how to change it.) SVN server: svn://anonsvn.kde.org Language for localization and documentation: de Extra configuration options: --with-libmtp --with-libgpod --with-mp4v2 Command for getting root privileges: sudo Build ID: Off Build directory: /home/matti/amarok-svn Clean source tree: Off after that the list of stuff included that comes after ./configure is run: ========================== === Amarok - PLUGINS ======================================================== ========================== = = The following extra functionality will NOT be included: = - NMM-engine = - Helix-engine = - yauap-engine = - libvisual Support = - MySql Support = - Postgresql Support = - MusicBrainz Support = - iRiver iFP Support = - Creative Nomad Jukebox Support = - MTP Device Support = - Rio Karma Support = = The following extra functionality will be included: = + xine-engine = + Konqueror Sidebar = + MP4/AAC Tag Write Support = + iPod Support (with Artwork) = mtp-detect gives the same stuff then Joeys ~matti~ As you can see mtp is not included even though I gave it the option libmtp-dev is installed with all dependencies I spotted this bug while googling for help. Well... I am using Ubuntu 8.04 and I have Samsung YP-U3 player (accessible via MTP). Rhythmbox (after enabling MTP plugin) finds this player and handles it without any problems. Amarok fails to find it - auto-detect does not find anything, after I added it manually, it still does not connect. The trick with adding mtp-detect as "before connect" command also do not help. |
