It may be that SD cards require some special setup to work with libmtp that calibre is not doing, but I cannot think of what that may be.
Yup. Did that first thing. Success via Nautilus. [For what it's worth, the same setup works fine with Calibre for my Sony prs-t1 with a 8gb microsd card; I tried the Fire with the 8gb sd card and same error so it's not tied to the card size].
