Although I have been using Pogoplug with Ubuntu 11.04 and other previous releases of Ubuntu. I had no luck with Ubuntu 11.10 beta. Would very much appreciate information on this subject.

If you find out let me know.

What errors are you getting? I got mine to work. let know what you have done so far and I can walk you through it.

I don't get any errors. When I run the script, I just get the prompt in the terminal. It used to go through a series commands in the terminal, now it does nothing.

On Ubuntu 11.10 PogoPlug installs and behaves exactly the same way as it did on 9.10, 10.04,10.10 as well as 11.04. The only difference is that on the issues prior to 11.10, when installed, the PogoPlug icon appears on the desktop. Whereas on 11.10 it does not, instead it can be found with all the other drives in the "Home Folder". For a while, I did not notice this and thought that it was not working.This situation is different on Linux Mint 11: the icon appears on the desktop. Also if PogoPlug is installed in the "Startup Applications", it mounts immediately with the login and appears on the desktop. Let me know if you experience further problems on this issue.

Perhaps I'm missing something. It worked fine on 11.04, but after the upgrade to 11.10, it does nothing. Could someone point me to the installation instructions again? I'm going to try and redo the entire installation.

I think I may have found the problem, but I'm not sure how to fix it. I get a "./pogoplugfs permission denied" error. I've tried it with sudo, but that doesn't work either. Somehow, my permissions are not right.

The following site has the full instructions and it works very well:

Good luck

I have found the problem. I /home on a separate hard drive. When I upgraded to 11.10, Ubuntu removed it from the fstab. I used Storage Manager to put it back in. It put it in, but changed the permissions to the drive. I edited the fstab, reverting to what I had before, and now it works. Thank you for all of your help.

I can't believe you guys actually got it to work... everything I do does not work. It always ends in "Failed to connect to server: -15![102818.708][256172][CEFSAP][08] Application Gracefully exiting...". I have been trying to get this running on Mint 11, Ubuntu 11.4 and 11.10. If anyone can help me through this it would be greatly appreciated. Thanx

I get this error code when trying to load pogoplug in Ubuntu 11.04-x64

/usr/bin/pogoplugfs: error while loading shared libraries: libfuse.so.2: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64

Can someone explain this one to me. Thanks for any help.

Update: They put the 64bit version back up, not getting error message now... :-)

November 18, 2011 3:25 PM

Wrong ELF class = application does not have the same Bits like the system = 32bit vs 64bit.

Hi

I am using Linux Mint Debian, the latest edition. Following the instruction posted on this forum I have been able to mount PogoPlug and also to have it mount at sart-up. so far so good. I can read and copy files from the mounted drive but CANNOT copy or save files to it. Every times I get permissions denied. If I try to change the PogoPlug permissions using "sudo chmod 0777 /media/pogoplug" I also get permissions denied.

Any idea? 

Could it be that I have to add my user name as well as root to the fuse command?

What is the syntax to add the two names at the same time?

Thanks

Didier

The problem is probably related to Libre Office. I experienced the same issue and resolved it by using Abiword for text files and Gnumeric for spreadsheets.

Hih

Thanks, I fixed it. I had the same problem using PogoPlug from my ManBook Pro. It was the drive itself that needed repairs. I just reformated and renamed the external drive attached to Pogoplug and voila.....the rest his history.

I"ve built a new workstation with a 64bit processor and decided to try Mint 12 on it.  I'm also getting the "Wrong ELF class" error.  No I'm hunting for the 64bit version of Pogoplug.  Can you remember where it was located?

These linux tools need some updates, I'm thinking.
