To mount an MTP Device on Ubuntu, follow these steps:
1. Connect the MTP device to the PC
2. If you are using the MTP device for the first time, install the following software. Otherwise, skip this step:
$ Sudo apt-Get install mtpfs libfuse-dev libmad0-dev
Create a mount point
$ Sudo mkdir/Media/MTP
Modify permissions
$ Sudo chmod 775/Media/MTP
3. Mount the MTP Device
$ Sudo mtpfs-O allow_other/Media/MTP
If you are prompted that the device is busy, you can wait for a while to mount the device.
4. Transfer the file (in MTP mode at this time) in the same way as USB, such:
$ CP video.mp4/Media/MTP/movies/
5. Uninstall the device
$ Sudo umount/Media/MTP
I can use Android 3.0 on ubuntu10.10 for MTP device mounting. After mounting, MTP disks will appear.
It seems that it cannot be mounted by USB. After connecting to the computer, sudo fdisk-l won't be able to see anything.
