<div dir="ltr">Okay, fair enough. It seems that gvfs does indeed mount the MTP device under /run/user/USERNAME/gvfs (wasn't listed with just the mount command, but is in /proc/mounts). But I don't think getting gvfs to play nicely with the rest of the x2gothinclient setup is worth the trouble. It might also be problematic as there is no way for the user to tell gvfs to mount the MTP device. It needs to be automatic. I think go-mtpfs might be the solution, but I am unable to test it today, as I am away from my work machine, where I have the before mentioned VM setup.</div>

Hi, Anders.<br>
<div class="im">> 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<br>
</div>Are you sure that it doesn't appear as part of VFS? Open MTP in<br>
Nautilus and then do `cat /proc/mounts' in terminal (if you haven't<br>
tried it yet), look for entries that seems to belong to gvfs. I don't<br>
have any MTP devices but, for example, samba shares that are opened<br>
via gvfs appear in VFS via (AFAIR) FUSE.<br>
