The question is why is a Linux/opensorce phone so hard to sync/connect to a Linux computer ? Is should be as easy a a work in the park..!?.. but no !!! What is missing !!

Update : Ok, I see this issue still is hot and not solved in an nativ jolla app. So here is what I do at the moment. 1 : I have to be root - set under settings -> system ->developer mode . Set USB LAN to 192.168.1.11 set a SSH password 2 : make a script on my /home/(your user) f.eks. 'mountjolla'

## START

3 : do a "mkdir /home/(your user)/jolla .

The question is why is a Linux/opensorce Why is a Linux/open-source phone so hard to sync/connect to a Linux computer ? Is computer? It should be as easy a a work easier than a walk in the park..!?.. but no !!! park! What is missing !! missing? Why is it so important to force Linux users through circuitous MITM-style hubris just to connect?

Update : Ok, I see this issue still is hot and not solved in an nativ jolla app. So here is what I do at the moment.

Update (not OP): Ten step workarounds vs. plug and play? I should be able to connect and set up a read-only connection without device root or deference any third party (yes, even Jolla) ssh/root permission monitor/authenticator. For Read-only, this should be a user level permissions/connection fix. Write/Execute are distinct problems. Is the wireless/USB technology/security standard that bad, or is this a user auditability/security management issue?

Another way is using firefox with "FireFTP" extention: , after setup ssh settings + password etc , connect USB cable, get usbnet setup with "ip link" and "sudo ip addr add (localIP) broadcast (localBrodcast) dev (jollaIP)" and point browser to "sftp://(jollaIP)/". Then you get a nice "mc" like interface :P (thanks coderus for the hint)
