Re: [Libmtp-discuss] udev and libmtp: detect a new mtp device based on its USB interface descriptor

[Roger Q. <rog...@no...>]

Hi Linus,

the mtp-probe utility works fine with Nokia Meego devices.
However the udev rule needs to be updated to include Communication 
Device Class.

Patch attached. Please integrate if it looks ok.

Tested to work on Ubuntu 10.10.

Any idea where I should change the device Icon shown in Nautils and 
Rhythmbox. It shows a Ipod nano icon, by default i guess.
