#1893 Nintendo Switch Lite

[Anonymous]

Nintendo Switch system version 11.0.0 has finally added the option to connect to a computer via USB. Gnome Files (fka Nautilus) recognizes it as an MTP device but it fails in mtp-detect

$ mtp-detect
libmtp version: 1.1.17

Listing raw device(s)
Device 0 (VID=057e and PID=201d) is UNKNOWN in libmtp v1.1.17.
Please report this VID/PID and the device model to the libmtp development team

Note for the device ID that this is a Switch Lite

I added it to libmtp git.

error 6 is busy I think ... does it work as root? is it exposed to nautilus already?
