Binary package hint: hal
Hello.
My mp3 device is not recognized as an mp3 player but as an usb drive.
It is a normal mp3 player that has a "Music" folder where you put all mp3's.
By looking on the net Ifound that this has to do with HAL and i spent my time on making my device to work.
I checked on HAL website and their last version does not include my player.
Now it works great, it is detected by rhythmbox, I am able to transfer(from-to)/play files from the mp3 player.
I am sorry, I don't know how to make a patch, so I'll add my changes as an txt file.
The only file I edited was:
/usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop/10-usb-music-players.fdi
I need help from someone to commit this changes so other people could use this Sony mp3 player.
(I am using Latest ubuntu 8.04 updated) |
