USB MP3 Player driver=(none)
I have a Gateway MP3 Photo Jukebox and I am trying to use it under Linux. When I connect it I can see it's entry in /proc/bus/usb/devices.
Code:
T: Bus=01 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=01 Cnt=01 Dev#= 3 Spd=480 MxCh= 0 |
linux detect it by itself usually.
Once you pluged it, type "dmesg". This is the kernel logging. You should see a line like "new USB device found" saying something about "storage allocated to device /dev/sda1" (or something similar, I don't have usb drive to try anymore). Then just mount it ( mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/where/you/want/it .. according "sda1" is the device found of course) and it will be accessible. USB storage is very well supported usually :) NB : double posting is EVIL |
This is what I get from dmesg:
Code:
usb 1-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 9 |
there is no line past this one?
|
Nope, that's it.
|
it probably allready does. just mount it. plug it in and run dmesg it should tell you what device it is (my ipod is /dev/sda and the music is on the third partition so I mount /dev/sda3) this is my fstab entry for my ipod:
Code:
/dev/sda3 /mnt/iPod hfsplus users,rw,noauto 0 0 |
ok, obliviously there is missing something
What's your distribution and your kernel? Try "modprobe usb-storage" and see if it does any good |
Distribution: LFS
Kernel 2.6.10 usb-storage is already loaded and works fine with my keychain usb flash drive. I mount this through /dev/sdb1 and /dev/sdb2. /dev/sda is my main hard drive that Linux is installed on. I've tried doing things like: fdisk /dev/sdc mount /dev/sdc1 I still think the problem lies with that 'Driver=(none)' line in /proc/bus/usb/devices. My keychain flash drive has 'Driver=usb-storage'. |
strange, it's like your kernel doesn't think usb-storage is the driver to use... maybe this jukebox device is a bit weird? My guess would be to recompile the kernel by hand and to add all "optionnal" feature about USB-storage (all support for weird media, support for flash card, support for "gadget" usb-storage, ...) maybe it could do some goods :s
