[Bug 903422] Re: Mount / Provide access to Android 4 (Ice Cream Sandwich, ICS) MTP devices

[EverydayInventors, LLC.]

The Nexus 7 also does not emulate a mass storage device, only MTP and
PTP are supported.  Using Ubuntu 12.04 I can only access a subset of the
Nexus 7's directory hierarchy related to the camera when using PTP.
Currently, setting up fuse to allow access to MTP devices is not
particularly intuitive but once set up correctly, MTP does seem to allow
access to what appears to be the full directory structure of the device.
