Hi all,
I recently (4 months ago) begun running FC5 on my Acer laptop, and I am thinking of buying a hard-disk mp3 player. Can anyone give me any advice which one(s) are best compatible with Linux? I have a mp3-flash player which can be used to store mp3's, but I can only listen to them if I use something like gtkpod (iTunes for Linux), otherwise my mp3 player doesn't recognize the format or something. I have no such problem in Windows XP, there it's just drag and drop. I would like to use the original firmware of the mp3-player, at least at first.
Thanx!

Anything that can work as a UMS device should work, as it is basically detected as a hard drive...

a good option might be the Archos Gmini 402 (video support, nice screen, not that expensive,etc) by default it is an MTP device, but you can change it to UMS with a setting in the options screen...
