when I connect my Nexus 7 to my Kubuntu laptop it shows up as a camera instead of a drive. I am running Kubuntu 12.10 and am fully up to date with my Nexus7.i would like to copy files over to it. On my Mac I use the Android file manager app to perform this but would like to be able to copy from my laptop to my Nexus.
Thanks in advance
Thanks for all the help here. kio-mtp has been packaged for Kubuntu and is available in the Experimental PPA: https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/experimental for those willing to use it.
Simply sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/experimental then do a sudo apt-get update and then finally sudo apt-get install kio-mtp
When you plugin your device, the system will recongize it and display an option to connect to the device.
Once you open up the device it will show as "Portable Media Player" and also the kio-slave mtp will be available.
Thanks to Rohan Garg for packaging this up. DOn't know when it will land in the normal repository, but it is working fine for me and several others.
