I get up to the part of adding myself to the fuse group. but there is no fuse group on my machine. I have installed mtpfs, and libmtp.
I am pretty sure your disk doesn't end up owned by the fuse group, but by the 'disk' group. Did you even try connecting the two devices? It works seamless here, without any commands required? And also, I think you won't need mtpfs or any other libraries?
Let's back up a few steps. What happens on the tablet when you connect it to the computer? Does it give you the option of connecting as a disk drive?
On the computer, after you connect the tablet, execute dmesg and look at the last 20 or so lines of the output. Anything about new disks? My HTC Incredible looks like this:

How to Ask Questions the Smart Way
With the introduction of Honeycomb came the end of "mount USB as mass storage". Since Honey Comb, Android will only use MTP. These settings can be found in ICS in Settings -> Storage -> USB computer Storage. I'm not at my Google TV otherwise I'd look for it within Honeycomb. Like I said I only use ADB but am more then willing to fiddle around with it this evening.
So it turns out that motorola is being a bit difficult (to put it nicely) and trying to force people into using their motocast software. Thats all well and good if you use windows or even OSX cause you can get this motocast software for them. But even the windows users have been complaining saying something about how it is often slow, and can give some difficulty when copying movies over, suggesting that it may have somthing to do with netflix.
Thank you for reaching out to us about your Xumo box. Once you have the show playing you can press either the right or left arrow to fast forward/rewind. You can find more helpful hints by visiting Exploring your Xumo Box Please let us know if you have any other questions. -Lyn
I get confused about if I am on Spectrum or Xumo when I record now that I don't have a DVR recorder and now have a Xumo box. When I am in a recorded program and try to fast forward or rewind in the circle part of the remote ( I have no right or left arrow), I get a menu when I press to the right to fast forward and I get nothing when I press the left side of the circle to try to rewind. I see no option to pause.
Once you are in the recording press the center of the round button in the middle. That will pause the recording. Once it pauses you can then use the right or left button to fast forward or rewind the recorded program. Took me awhile to figure it out as there are NO clear cut instructions. Hope this helps !
I want to scream everytime I hit the right circle button and get the guide when i'm trying to fast fwd a recording or on-demand program. You have to remember to press the middle button first! Seems like it should be automatic in playback mode. Please...can this be fixed?
The spectrum app on Xumo is garbage. To not support pause and rewind and fast forward is far inferior to the set top dvr. My streaming service at my other home is DirectTV Streaming and I have cloud dvr service. That service allows me to pause rewind and fast forward while watching any live show, from any of my streaming boxes.
There is absolutely no reason that Spectrum cannot simple automatically record whatever you are watching, allow you to pause and fast forward, then delete that temporary recording when you change the channel. DirectTV saves whatever you are watching for up to the last hour so that you can use these features.
The problem is indeed with the Spectrum app. The app just has a lousy FF feature. And, the Spectrum app does not provide automatic rewind of live TV. I am experimenting with how to do this by starting a recording.
You can watch the Spectrum app with Roku, and the fast-forward works a little better. But not much better, just a little easier to avoid forwarding all the way to the end of a title before you can stop it. On Roku, you can watch your cloud DVR titles, and record to cloud DVR.
The Xumo remote has a numeric keypad, so you can easily swap between channel numbers. The Xumo remote supports voice channel changes, although you have to be specific about the channel name, and it's hard for me to remember the call letters of my local network affiliates.
When I try to watch something recorded on the cloud DVR with Xumo box and want to fast forward. The picture stays on the paused image and the timer moves forwad which makes me have to guess when the commercials are over which is extremely frustrating. Is this the way it is now?
One incredible theme which kept resonating with us throughout our talk with Kevin Hartz, the founder and CEO of Eventbrite, last Friday is his incredible desire to learn from mentors, role models, and other entrepreneurs around him. Even though he has built numerous hit startups, including ConnectGroup, which he started and sold for $10M in less than 10 months, Xoom which currently does $250B+ in money transfers, as well as Evenbrite which we all love and use today, he is still hungry to learn from other folks who are building product.
Kevin talked quite a bit about the importance of mentors. He shared a story with us of when he first got out of Stanford and had the idea of creating an internet provider business for hotel chains. Without the right connections negotiating with hotels required a lot of capital and connections. So Kevin approached one of the general managers at a Hilton in South Bay. The manager was forward thinking, liked the concept, invested in the idea and became the first marquee customer. The general manager helped Kevin get into other hotel chains. ConnectGroup was incorporated in April of 1998 and acquired by LodgeNet for $10M in October of 1998.
Kevin mentioned that the most important lesson he has learned and employed is to surround yourself with brilliant people. Peter Thiel has been a close friend and mentor to Kevin from their time at Stanford. When Max Levchkin came to Peter with an idea for a mobile security company, Peter pulled Kevin into the discussion. Max and Peter stayed very agile early on, iterated a number of times on the idea, and eventually decided to launch a payments platform instead. Kevin was one of the first users and investors in PayPal and has stayed very close with the core team there. A lot of his own investing and startup advising is based on what he has learned working with Peter, Max and the rest of the team.
Kevin mentioned that it was very simple to figure out the size of the market and the financial potential when he started Xoom. However, with Eventbrite it was much more of a challenge. Since you are dealing with long tail events, the potential of initial market was a leap of faith for them. As a result, Kevin did not take any investment and bootstrapped the company until they could figure out the size of the market. This is one piece of advice he recommends for anybody starting a business where you don't know the size of the market.
Kevin talked quite a bit about being agile and being able to change directions quickly. He is an old friend of Jawed Karim, the founder of YouTube. He loves the YouTube story which he shared with us during the talk. They launched as a dating site, thinking people would post video profiles and meetup on the site. It didn't work until all of a sudden they saw a video of a plane taking off over head which someone had posted on the site. A surge of traffic came to the site to check out the video. They changed their direction and decided to make the site open to anybody wanting to post a video. If they were stubborn and kept trying to build a video dating site they would have missed the whole market. Being agile and changing directions when you see the opportunity is part of building great companies.
The discussion continued. We talked in depth about Evenbrite and what their next steps will be as well as the current IPO environment. We'd like to thank Kevin Hartz once more for such an engaging perspective on building products!
Eventbrite - which he founded and still runs today did over $207M in gross ticket sales in 2010. It's a pretty interesting time for. Eventbrite as they start to battle Ticketmaster head on. Black Eyed Peas have just sold out their show in Central Park by solely using Eventbrite. Many artists are starting to use the site for ticket sales.
Kevin: Finding mentors, finding those with trajectory, you don't always have to find the person who's accomplished 30 years of work. You can a lot of times see those sparks of brilliance of people on that very steep trajectory. A very important point of expansion and growth at any stage of the company is just don't lose sight of your core business.
Moderator (Dmitry): Super excited to introduce Kevin Hartz, the founder and CEO of Eventbrite and, of course, an avid entrepreneur. He's accomplished so much in so little time. Of course, started three businesses, advises so many others, started ConnectGroup, which was one of the first Internet providers for hotel chains, has started Xoom, which was a money transfer company, and, of course, Eventbrite, which we all use and love today. So with that, let's welcome Kevin to ZURBsoapbox.
Kevin, welcome. I want to start off with this recurring theme. You've accomplished so much. In your words, I think you said once that you're always learning from entrepreneurs, from investors, from people that are building products out there. That was sort of the trend across all these startups, starting back at Stanford, right?
