Avrin Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 (edited) No way under any Linux. Windows emulation may help, but then again - it may not. SonicStage is a really crazy piece of software... Edited May 9, 2007 by Avrin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is possible that it would do the same for the nh600, if you are wanting to use it for external storage.It's my personal belief that linux will become a serious competitor to Windows in the coming years. However... the chances of someone creating an open-source emulator for SonicStage are slim, which is regrettable. I have no problems with SonicStage; I use it regularly, and almost never use that "other" piece of software... can't remember the name, but it's bundled with QuickTime...

Ubuntu may very well be recognizing it... it may just be a matter of "finding" it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raintheory Posted May 10, 2007 Report Share Posted May 10, 2007 (edited) Ubuntu should pick it up as a removable drive, and you should be able to use it as such...What version of Ubuntu are you running? I've had some issues with Festy (7.04) and mounting volumes... Haven't tried my Hi-MD units on that version yet though.

=PK= Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 Using kubuntu Feisty too, and it doesn't recognize mi mz-n510. Do I have to install any driver? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raintheory Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 I've been trying to figure this out... With Dapper, I was able to use my NetMD units (and Hi-MD units in NetMD mode), but it doesn't want to work for me with Feisty...I'll post back if I find anything out.BTW this is all using VMware in linux..

angryfirelord Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 Unfortunately, because of how proprietary Sony is, it's a difficult task to get it working, let alone being able to use SonicStage in Linux. The linux kernel would most likely have seen your player (type dmesg in a terminal) but it doesn't know what to do with it. So, unfortunately, I had to buy a flash-based mp3 player (Sansa m240). There are some tools, but they don't allow ripping music to the player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
