I think it is using MTP ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_Transfer_Protocol). Looks like I have a couple of options: gphoto: http://www.gphoto.org/ libmtp: http://libmtp.sourceforge.net/ gnomad2: http://gnomad2.sourceforge.net/ Seems like gphoto and libmtp are forks from the same code base. gnomad2 is based on libmtp. Can anyone recommend the gphoto or libmtp forks?
