Has anyone else found a way round this problem? Is anyone packaging mtpfs or gMTP for Fedora?
I don't bother with the USB cable at all. I just use File Expert on the Nexus to share files over the network with the web interface it provides.
I did try some MTP stuff and found there definitely seems to be something busted. It could see directories, but not any files in those directories. I suspect the mtp libs need work. (MTP on Windows 7 worked fine, so it doesn't seem to be a problem on the Nexus side).
Over in the Nexus 7 forum on android forums, there was even a post about people who got cifs network mounts working (but you need a rooted nexus 7 for that to add new kernel modules and do the mount).
