Are you saying I should run that yum upate of libmtp with the libmtp RPM in the same directory? If so, I can run that now. > this segfault is most likely why you had empty directories. Hmmm... good point. Thanks. I don't even know what gvfs-gphoto2-vo is. Looking for it, I find: $ sudo updatedb; locate gvfs-gphoto2-vo ==> /usr/libexec/gvfs-gphoto2-volume-monitor Hmmm... what is that? Googling, it's some kind of Gnome filesystem monitor. Grepping, it's running: $ ps auxww|grep gvfs-gphoto2-volume-monitor|grep -v grep ==> user1 10465 0.1 0.0 151084 3356 ?

OK. I'll kill the process. Is that the same thing? $ sudo kill -9 10465 Then, I'll unlock the phone & plug it in. Hmmm.... when I did that, this series of dialogs came up, in sequence: http://www1.picturepush.com/photo/a/13171084/img/13171084.png But now it won't even open the directory. I'm sure we're close, but I'm not sure how to debug why it won't open up.
