To me this looks like your media player only exports a camera interface (at least an mtp interface), does it work on other Linux distributions?

[Luca Ferretti (elle.uca)]

Does Ubuntu 9.04 count as "other Linux distribution"? ;)

As I said, it was properly recognized as music player (i.e. the icon showed in computer:// and on desktop is "multimedia-player" and the nautilus what-do-you-want-to-do-with-this-media dialog proposes to use Rhythmbox) in 9.04 (and maybe 8.10, I don't remember now).
Karmic, instead, uses "camera-photo" icon and proposes to open it in F-Spot.

And, yes, it's a MTP device, and libgphoto should recognize it. See here[1]
  { "Samsung", 0x04e8, "YP-T10", 0x508a, DEVICE_FLAG_OGG_IS_UNKNOWN | DEVICE_FLAG_BROKEN_MTPGETOBJPROPLIST },

Maybe in Jaunty there was some HAL magic?

This issue seems fixed by changes applied due to bug #444083.

OK to mark this a duplicate?
