Rockbox boots up, works fine, isn't detected by computer (e250r)

I purchased, like assumedly a few others on here, a refurbed Sansa e250r from Woot recently.  I decided to toss RockBox on it, and it runs pretty nicely.  However, one problem.

I hook the USB cable to the computer and the e250r, and the USB cable picture comes up on the e250r, yet the computer does not recognize that there is a device hooked to it.  Any advice?

n6s1:
Rockbox does not support USB connection yet.
so you have to go back to Sansa's firmware and connect it

I'm in the same boat with the original poster, "new" sansa e250 that I wanted to put rockbox on.

So, this may be a stupid question, but if I can't connect it with USB, what can I do with it?

Does that mean that the whole thing doesn't work?

Or does it mean that I have to use the original firmware to load music, and then I can boot into the rockbox firmware?

Having to reboot in order to connect seems like a big turn off.

Yes.

Yes.

Damn.  Even though I do enjoy the spartan look and feel of it, at this point I can't justify a program that leaves out the most essential function.
