The previous solution I posted here is unfortunately undone by a reformat of the Clip’s storage. But I located another solution:
sudo mkdir -m 0777 /media/clip sudo mtpfs -o allow\_other /media/clip ls /media/clip # verify it worked
This sequence is a little more delicate than it might appear; when I did “sudo su” and did the mtpfs call from there, things didn’t work and I got a puzzling message “Transport endpoint is not connected”. The webpage where I found this also cautions against removing the Clip without unmounting /media/clip.
