• Adding support for Archos Jukeboxes: It is possible to add support for Archos Jukebox by updating the USB storage drivers. Updated drivers and other needed files are available here. Unzip and untar this file at "/" (this, of course, assumes you have unlocked your dec). The commands to do this are: "cd /" followed by "tar zxvf /tmp/archos.tar.gz". Run "depmod -a", "rmmod usb-storage", "modprobe usb-storage" followed by "killall X" and the GUI should restart. Now when you connect Archos JBR to the USB port, it should show up under the list of portables. The "portables" menu should allow you to manipulate the files on JBR and you should also be able to transfer MP3 files to JBR. The updated driver has been tested with Archos JukeBox Recorder 20. Updated driver may enable support for other Archos players and other MP3 players as well. If you try this code, you do so at your own risk. This code comes with absolutely no warranty of any kind, expressed or implied. This code may or may not work for you.
