Re: libmtp, mp3 player, and disabling scsa2usb

Short version: I want to prevent scsa2usb from attaching to a
USB mp3 player that claims to be a mass storage device but is
not controllable as one.

Long version:

I got a Sony 8GB mp3 player and want to hook it up to my Sun
Blade 2000 running Solaris 10. It has a USB connection.

As far as I can tell I need to use MTP -- Media Transfer
Protocol -- to control the mp3 player. It offers a mass
storage interface because whatever is on the storage via
USB is not recognized as a pcfs filesystem. (Maybe NTFS?
I don't know how to check.)

It could simply use a 2K sector size. If you can, try a recent
OpenSolaris build which will be able to read it.
