Can not connect to Linux system via MTP

There was a time that after connecting to my Linux desktop from my android phone I could swipe my phone down from the top and select MTP instead of charging. I no longer get that option and I don't know why. I do have developer options turned on.

Also, since the Linux desktop (Mint) no longer sees my phone I can no longer debug an app using Android Developer Studio.

Any ideas?

Ok, got it resolved. It was a bad cable issue.
