MP3 Player undetected: Integrated Circuit Solution, Inc

[Pascal de Bruijn]

My MP3 Player is only detected as a USB Disk, and not as an MP3 Player as such.

As far as I can tell, you haven't actually said what kind of MP3 player you have as Integrated Circuit Solution is not a brand of MP3 player.

Also, please tell us how you expected the MP3 player to be detected if not as a USB device. Almost all MP3 players other than iPods and Sony Walkmen will be detected as USB devices on Ubuntu.

[Pascal de Bruijn (pmjdebruijn)]

Well, my previous MP3 player was detected as a Media Player and the icon would change to a Media Player icon, instead of a Mass Storage icon.

This is quite useful, if I have both my MP3 Player and another mass storage device attached, it helps me immediately distinguish them from each other.

[Andreas Lloyd (lloydinho)]

I see that you've reported this as a bug before with the necessary info. I've marked this as a duplicate of that bug and assigned it to Martin Pitt who'll fix it when he has time. :-)

[Pascal de Bruijn (pmjdebruijn)]

No, that's not a duplicate!

It's a different player. I first got this Lenco player but it was broken, I got the ICSI one in return after RMAing it.

[Pascal de Bruijn (pmjdebruijn)]

I'll take a look at /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop tomorrow, I'll try to submit a diff then.

[Pascal de Bruijn (pmjdebruijn)]

This patch should add the player to be recognized.
