MTP is handled by an updated gvfs and is accessible in Nautilus, but does not get mounted as a part of the filesystem in a way that is available outside Nautilus Are you sure that it doesn't appear as part of VFS? Open MTP in Nautilus and then do `cat /proc/mounts' in terminal (if you haven't
Hi, Anders. tried it yet), look for entries that seems to belong to gvfs. I don't have any MTP devices but, for example, samba shares that are opened via gvfs appear in VFS via (AFAIR) FUSE.

Hi Mike,
I have setup a virtual machine running Ubuntu 12.04 to test out MTP and have found out that it is quite annoying to deal with. mtpfs does not work out-of-the-box. A Google-employee has made go-mtpfs, which supposedly works better, but I have yet to experiment with it. With normal mtpfs it seems that you need to setup udev rules for your specific device, meaning that it can't be used as a catch-all solution for MTP devices. I will try to experiment with go-mtpfs and see if it can work as a general solution without having to do specific udev rules for all devices.
As a side-note, on my Ubuntu 13.04 desktop, MTP is handled by an updated gvfs and is accessible in Nautilus, but does not get mounted as a part of the filesystem in a way that is available outside Nautilus. Which is why I haven't actually played with mtpfs before, despite having an MTP device :)

Package: x2gothinclientmanagement
Severity: wishlist
X2go thinclients currently mount usb-storage devices nicely. It would be nice if they could also handle MTP-devices (like newer Android-phones). The mechanics for connecting the x2goserver session to the actual device (sshfs) wouldn't need to be changed. It would be a case of adding mtpfs or something similar to the thinclient chroot and making sure it auto mounts.
This basically has to be solved in the x2gousbmount package of the src:x2gothinclient X2Go component.
As I do not have such a device here for testing, I need help for that.
A test rig would look like this:
o Install a minimal Debian/Ubuntu system o install the x2gothinclient package from our nightly builds (+dependencies) (or build from source: x2gothinclient.git) o edit the files you find in [1] and add mtpfs to the test system till it works
Greets, Mike
