Can't mount Fisher-Price Cool School in f10
 

I know, not the most glamorous post, but I'm trying to get a child's toy (usb) to mount on Fedora 10 and can't find the device name to mount it.Here's some info....

/var/log/messages when the device is plugged in:
Feb 20 13:52:07 renegade kernel: usb 5-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2

Here are the entries in /dev for the device:

crw-rw-rw- 1 root tty 5, 2 2009-02-20 14:12 ptmx

Any ideas on how to get this mounted for use? Thanks.

After plugging in the device, try running:

$ dmesg | tail

and, as root:

# fdisk -l

And post the output of both here. I am assuming this is some sort of usb storage device.

At first glance I would say it probably will not work. The cool school is not a mountable device like external hard drives. It appears to be a USB keyboard and tablet. BTW hid is an acronym for human interface device which includes USB mice, keyboards, tablets, joysticks, UPSs etc. A quick Google did not find anything about linux support but that was expected and of course the included software will not natively work in linux either. Would have no idea if the tablet is compatible with any existing USB driver.

Post the output of the command:
cat /proc/bus/usb/devices
