Hello,
I would like to be able to read/write the memory of my Garmin Forerunner 255 on my computer in order to copy activity from the watch and gps tracks to the watch. The watch is connected via USB cable to the computer. I used to be able to see the memory as a standard disk when using ubuntu 22.04 with Unity desktop. More precisely, using the latter an icon appears when the cable is plugged in and one can mount the device. I would like to be able to do the same in my laptop with archlinux installed (though the icon does not matter, I just would like to mount it as a standard disk).
When I plug the watch on my laptop with archlinux installed I see the following messages (dmesg)
[54944.903745] usb 3-6: new high-speed USB device number 41 using xhci_hcd
[54945.044635] usb 3-6: New USB device found, idVendor=091e, idProduct=0003, bcdDevice= 0.01

[54951.268938] garmin_gps 3-6:1.0: device disconnectedUp to 54951.267829 everything looks normal. What I do not understand is why after roughly 5sec the device is automatically disconnected. Between 54945.047664 and 54951.267829 I am able to see a /dev/ttyUSB device that suddenly disappears even though the watch remains plugged.
I was not able to find any relevant information in other posts.

Do you see it in commands: 'lsusb' , 'lsblk -f' also 'usb-devices' , 'journalctl -b -e' ?

Please edit your posts and use [ code ] tags (not quote tags) when posting output. This makes the output easier to read and provides a scroll box for long output.

It looks like for some reason no driver is loaded for Garmin, but there is garmin_gps module in current kernel. For more information read here:
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/USB … _GNU/Linux
but remember that you have Archlinux distro.

Thanks for the suggestion. This is also the first link I found when googling "garmin linux". Though I do not understand how it is relevant to my question (which is mounting the memory of the watch as a disk) whereas the link describes how to use the garmin device as a GPS (somehow interactively). If you can be a bit more explicit I would appreciate.

Hi, sorry for necro-posting, but related Garmin / Forerunner google results lead here.
The problem here is not a problem actually. The Forerunner watch does not expose a mass-storage block device, instead, the files are accessed over the MTP protocol. So, it is normal to not see a device in either dmesg or lsblk. All you need is an MTP client.
(edit: typo)

Thanks for the answer. I followed the instructions at https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Media_ … r_Protocol but there is some not completely clear to me error message
