Start with
sudo apt-get install mtpfs
Create device rules for the Xoom
sudo joe /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="22b8", MODE="0666"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="18d1", MODE="0666"
make the mount point, take ownership and add the mount point to fstab
sudo mkdir /media/xoom sudo chown user:user /media/xoom # user is you
sudo joe /etc/fstab
mtpfs /media/xoom fuse user,noauto,allow_other 0 0
modify the fuse.conf to allow_other. Uncomment the last line
#allow_other
Add yourself to the fuse group
sudo joe /etc/group
Reboot
Places will now contain "xoom"
To keep the screen from blanking while Xoom is plugged in go to
Settings/Applications and click "Stay Awake". There is no way
to keep the screen from blanking when running on battery.
