10 I've had a play with this and got it working for my Nexus7. The udev rule
11 has to go in a high-numbered file, because libmtp adds its own rules
12
13 % cat /etc/udev/rules.d/99-android-mtp.rules
14 ATTR{idVendor}=="18d1", ATTR{idProduct}=="4e42", RUN="/home/nelz/bin/mountnexus.sh &"
15
16
17 % cat /home/nelz/bin/mountnexus.sh
18 #!/bin/sh
19 logger "Nexus connected"
20 mkdir -p /media/nexus7
21 jmtpfs -o allow_other /media/nexus7
22 logger "Nexus mounted"
23
24 You need to enable allow_other in /etc/fuse.conf.
