Well now. "That" operating system whose name I shall not mention,
running under qemu-kvm, is reading the table without issue.
My old device finally charged to 20%. It identifies as
usb 2-1.3: new high-speed USB device number 14 using ehci-pci
usb 2-1.3: New USB device found, idVendor=0b05, idProduct=5500
usb 2-1.3: New USB device strings: Mfr=2, Product=3, SerialNumber=4
usb 2-1.3: Product: Android
usb 2-1.3: Manufacturer: Android
It is actually a Tablet sold by ASUS. It is defined in music-players.h
{ "Asus", 0x0b05, "K010 (MTP)", 0x5500,
DEVICE_FLAGS_ANDROID_BUGS },
It is running Android 4.4 and there is no upgrade available. Which if fine sine it
is as slow as molasses in winter.
Plugging it in gets me no pop-up. I can view files, delete files, and download files
using dolphin in KDE.
Thank you for all the help with this!
Well, OK. But sadly the issue persists for you. :-(
