MTP means no Linux, currently.

The device descriptor from lsusb says that the device has two bulk 
endpoints and one interrupt endpoint which is similar to what we have seen 
from other MTP devices, and it doesn't call itself a PDE device so it 
doesn't look good :-(

The interrupt endpoint is typical for devices using Microsoft RNDIS-type 
message marshalling on a local link network, which I believe is what MTP 
on Windows probably use.

So, sorry... If you could do some USB sniffer logs on this device we could 
tell more about it.
