6 I can't find such an ebuild. For the time being, I've set commands in
7 /etc/sudoers.d/ to have root mount the tablet, with the "allow_other"
8 option enabled. And also the unmount equivalant. I notice that mtpfs
9 doesn't see the "My Documents" folder on the tablet. I assume it
10 doesn't like spaces in directory (and possibly file) names.

14 That'll have to wait until after I get back from a trip next month. I
15 want the tablet working properly when I go on the trip. The camera is
16 actually quite good for a tablet. When I get back, I'll get the tablet
17 rooted, and maybe go to CyanogenMod. "Nuke and re-pave".
