Initial connect to USB did not report anything in dmesg. By looking at
/proc/bus/usb/devices found:
T: Bus=01 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=00 Cnt=01 Dev#= 26 Spd=480 MxCh= 0

It was being found but there is no Driver! As I understand this means
that the firmware is using the Managed firmware.
So instead install ifp-line
and run as root:
$ wajig install ifp-line
$ ifp ls
Device is busy. (I was unable to claim its interface.)
$ sudo ifp ls
d VOICE
d RECORD
f iRiver, Catch the digital flow!.mp3 (size 1988608)
|
This works just fine! with commands to manage the iRiver from the
command line.
A decent graphics interface is ifp-manager:
$ wget https://optusnet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/ifp-manager/ifp-manager0_2_0.tar.bz2
$ tar xvf ifp-manager0_2_0.tar.bz2
$ cd ifp-manager0.2.0/
$ sudo ./ifpmanager.pl
|
Another graphical interface is provided by ifp-gnome. The interface
is good but the functionality is limited. Seems if you select a
folder of albums belonging to an artist, only the first album gets
uploaded.
$ wget https://optusnet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/ifp-gnome/ifp-gnome_0.5-ubuntu1_noarch.deb
$ wajig install ifp-gnome_0.5-ubuntu1_noarch.deb
$ sudo ifp-gnome
