I just got a Sansa 4Gb Connect MP3. This is audio and video.
I am running FC10 and Gnome on an Asus 701.
I plug the sansa in with its special USB cable and I show a USB

The Sansa devices can be configured in 2 USB modes. By default they
are configured such that they appear to be a media device to MS
Windows. You want the other mode, it which the Sansa appears to be a
storage device. That's configured in the Sansa's Settings section.
I have tried to add the Disk Mounter tool to the panel, but when I
click on add, nothing happens.
So perhaps multiple things are going wrong here.
But what tool would I use to move music, pics, and videos to the
Sansa?
When I plug in my Sansa, I am informed (on my KDE desktop) that a new
device has been plugged in. I opt to mount that device. Then it is
a simple matter to copy files to /media/SANSA_CLIP/PODCASTS/ (or
whatever). When the Sansa is disconnected it automatically
re-indexes the files stored on it. Then they are available via the
on-screen menu selection.
FYI, the Sansa firmware is updated the same way: just copy the
firmware file to the root of the device's filesystem. No need for
Sandisk's Win32 application.
Steve,
Where do you find the firmware updates that are _not_ in the form or a
*.exe file?
Or is there some way to break the components out of the *.exe?
Thanks,

To answer myself, see:
http://forums.sandisk.com/sansa/board/message?board.id=clip&thread.id=10534
in case the next person needs it. Instructions and code worked
perfectly for a new Sansa Clip. (and it now handles FLAC and OGG)
