Hi,
my car (volvo v50) has a usb connector. With this connector, you can attach usb sticks and hard disks, to read music files from them.
This works fine for many devices, including my colleague's htc magic.
This device also just exports a vfat filesystem, and then in the car you can navigate through the directory structure and play songs.

However, with the n900 this doesn't work (obviously after selecting "mass storage mode" - with the htc you also need to confirm in a similar fashion)
I have no idea why the n900 would be any different, as it's also just a vfat filesystem over usb.

The problem happens with both with mine (3.2010.02-08) and another colleague who has a n900, running the more recent PR1.2

How can i make this work?
Thanks,
Dieter
