Unable to access Moto G under Linux Mint - Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I can access my Moto G 2015 on any Windows machine, plug it in and away it goes, seeing both the internal and SD card with no problem... But when I connect it to my Linux Mint desktop I get an error (see pic below) but to make things even stranger if I connect it to my laptop running the exact same Linux Minx version, it works fine and I get an icon show up on the desktop and can access both internal and sdcard with no issues, adb works no matter what which box I connect it to.
I know this is a Linux thing more than a Moto G thing, but figured someone here might be able to help.

Nevermind... I did a distro-upgrade from 17.1 to 17.2, then updated to the recommended kernel for 17.2 and it works now.

[Q] Android Porting on Netbooks

I have a Fujitsu P1120 touchscreen netbook. I have been trying to dual boot android with the windows xp that is on there but have had no success. I cannot seem to figure out the right way to put android on the hard drive. It keeps coming up with a grub error for invalid filesystem. I have downloaded liveandroid, android 86x. The main problem that I have is that my device doesn't support booting from usb, booting from network, or any usb external drive. So the only way I can get it to work is to manually install android but I don't know how to do that.
Can anyone help me with this please?

Is liteOn Slim USB (have 2 usb) dvd-rw and the bios work..
To put it bluntly you're trying to get your netbooks to do something it isn't intended to do. Those thing are built with the absolute bare minimum to do pretty much nothing more than browse the web, hence "netbook". It's not a full PC. Even the newer ones don't run a full version of Windows 7. Short of knowing how to re-write a BIOS image or finding a modified one and flashing it, which has the risk of perma-bricking your computer.
Волк,
Sorry my bad english..I have a good computer, phone and tablet. However I like to modify my old electronics giving new life to them .... Now for example I'll replace the HDD Fujitsu Lifebook P1120 IDE for SSD and I'll put a PCMCIA card with internal memory to speed up Windows. I installed windows 7 and it is working. So I had to make a modification in winsetup.dll to install.
At the moment I install Android but I am having difficulties.

510 rooted / CWM / StockROM / not visible via USB under Linux

Hi all,
the Acer 510 contains the Stockrom, which is rooted and CWM is installed. If I connect the the Tablet via USB with W7, I can see the internal and external SD-Card. If I connect the same tablet under Linux (Suse 11.4), the tablet / filesystem is unknow and could not be mounted
Normaly I see every Android Device under Linux and can mount this one without any problems , so that I 've an access to the SD-Cards.
Does someone has seen the same issue and hopefully has a solution for this one?
Since ICS the protocol used is MTP and linux is not familiar whith it
take a look at this article, it will help you even if it's written fo ubuntu

Tablet doesn't use Mass Storage mode but MTP which you have to setup on your Linux machine.
Ubuntu tutorial (required packages should also work on other distros)
Alternative (I've never heard about this before TBH)
THX !
I'll try it on evening and let you know
Before you proceed in futher steps, did you try connecting the tablet to the Linux machine with USB debugging off? (Win XP for example, cannot use the A510 as MTP if usb debugging is on.)
Even if you get it to work, don't expect somethign good. The Support for MTP is really bad in most Linux distros. probably because MTP is a Microsoft thing. I got it to work once and all i could do was copy small files in already existing folders. Creating folders or copying large files always resulted in a force unmount.
I agree with you that why I only use FTPserver instead now
Simplest alternative to MTP- QtADB, I know it wasn't updated for over a year but worked for me (various 2.1-4.0 firmwares and hardware)

wifi file transfer from the play store is another option.

Also does anyone have any tips or advice on how to root/unlock broader of motto g x1034? I have the wind mobile Canadian version.

Have you tried connecting the phone in mass storage mode?
Now, to responds your answers in order:
So how do I get drivers onto pc with no interne
A: when you plug your phone it asks you the mode, instead of MTP switch to USB Mass Storage in the notification bar or in Settings>Storing (?)>USB Connection>USB Mass Storage.
How do I root xt1034 moto g
A: Look here ithe Q8.
What's the best/fastest rom to run on this phone
A: Look here. Sorry.
Where do I read to learn how to develop my own room?
It depends, first you need to own a room, is not enough to have a room with your name on it, you need to OWN it, make it a extension of you, decorate it with pictures of YOU... owning things with your picture on it, very empowering thing, right there. Then you develope it with good taste and decorations.
If you took a picture of it and want to develope it, you can do that in a red light or a very dark room.
You can join in a architect or a design school to start developing rooms, not only your own.
If you are referring to a ROM, you need a little background in programming and compiling source code, preferably in linux. If you'd like to experiment the basics, you can try to compile Cyanogenmod,following the guide in the wiki.
What's a modified recovery? Can that help me root my phone without pc?
a modified recovery is a recovery that's been altered from its original form.
nothing can help you to root your phone without a pc, adb and the drivers.
for a better understanding of what is a recovery, a custom recovery or other strange, make-up words and technobabble, read this.
Also, depending on the method used, you don't need to touch the recovery for rooting. But the easiest (according to me) is

Not able to connect to P900 from win 8.1

I've invested the last 10 hours to install the most recent Cyanogen mod on my P900. Unfortunately, I have deleted my cm image file, which I had copied on the P900 by wiping my data from the TWRP menu. And as I am not able to access the device from windows anymore, I don't know how to proceed.
When plugging the usb plug into my notebook, I can hear windows recognizing the P900. And in the device manager, it appears as portable devices > MTP-USB-device. But the command adb device returns no device.
Installing/uninstalling kies and installing the most current samsung usb drivers SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_v1.5.45.0.exe didn't help so far.
Thanks for any advice how I could proceed.

Stupid me! Meanwhile, I found out that the device has an external micro SD slot, which one can use to provide files to the device.
Maybe this post helps somebody out there to save time.

Rooted Galaxy Note 3 (running Lineage 18.1) refuses to connect to WiFi after installing Nexmon/Bcmon (bcmdhd_sta.bin)

So I installed Kali NetHunter to use the Wifite command. Long story short, I find out that I need an external wifi card for programs like Wifite to ACTUALLY run, so I find a tutorial to use Wifite WITHOUT a WiFi card. I installed Hijacker and went through the initial setup process (installing Nexmon). But then, I realised that I can no longer connect to any WiFi networks, despite my phone detecting them. I figured it had to do something with my management utility path for the Nexmon installation not existing at all (the default was /product/bin, which does not exist for my phone). So I reinstalled it, only this time setting the path as /system/bin). Still, it didn’t work. I fugured it has to do something with the bcmdhd_sta.bin file inside of the WiFi folder (/system/vendor/etc/wifi). No luck deleting it (I used amaze file manager). Can anyone pls help me, I just want my phone back, preferably without a hard reset. The device chipset that the Nexmon installation window is showing is 4339a0.
Details of my phone:
Samsung Galaxy Note 3 SM-9005
Android 11, running LineageOS 18.1
