A newer protocol used by some [MP3] players, such as the Samsung U3 series. (Incidentally, the U3 also plays OggVorbis files.) Such players don't use [USB] mass-storage, so you can't (yet) see them in your file browser window and drag-n-drop files to/from the device like a USB disk. |

On linux, support relies on applications using the <tt>libmtp</tt> library. Applications that support this include RhythmBox (in [GNOME]) and Amarok (in [KDE]). Your distribution might also have a package called <tt>mtp-tools</tt> for accessing these devices from the command line, if you are that way inclined. |

In RhythmBox, (at least for the version in Ubuntu 7.10) you will need to go to the Edit menu, Plugins, and enable "Portable Players - MTP". I'm guessing this isn't on by default yet because the support seems a little buggy. |
