USB Keypad Mode Won't Allow iPod Nano 1st Gen to Mount in Ubuntu

(1/5) > >>

moore.bryan:
In short, I'm trying to change my music on my Nano. In the past, I've used it as an external hd and just copied things over. That is my preference still, but I cannot due that because there is no way to disable USB Keypad Mode. To boot, I can't update my Rockbox either because of this issue!

Any help?

Rockbox version: r28058-100909
Ubuntu 11.10

saratoga:
I'm not aware of any problems with Ubuntu and USB HID mode, but if you think thats the problem you can disable USB HID (check the manual) and see if that helps.

moore.bryan:
Thanks, saratoga, I tried that first, but to no avail. I've *never* had this problem before and didn't even know this USB Keypad Mode existed. Why in the world wouldn't there be a way to disable it?

I don't understand what you're trying to say.

moore.bryan:
I never used USB Keypad Mode before and never even knew it was an option. In the past when I connected my Nano to my lappie, it only *ever* mounted r/w as an external hd. Why would it suddenly now start in keypad mode--without a way to turn-off that feature *completely*--and not allow me to make changes?
