Description: Works like a charm. I'm using it on Slackware current, but this player (along with its 20Gb H320 version) uses FAT32 as its filesystem for its music/data. So Linux sees it as an external usb device, and it should work on any Linux distro out there.

Make sure you have USB/USB2 enabled in your kernel, and support for external usb devices (you also need scsi-emulation).

All you need to do is plug the player in, and
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/myFolder
(replace sda1 and myFolder with your appropriate names..)

EXTRA INFO:
Just to show you, the output of dmesg would be something like this,
usb 1-5: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3
