Is there a page or wiki with info on how to get an Ipod going on 12.1?? I just did a fresh install w/updates and would like to be able to connect an Ipod. The unit does show up in lsusb. Bus 001 Device 018: ID 05ac:129e Apple, Inc. iPod Touch 4.Gen Banshee should recognize the device when you connect an iPod. I tried that a couple times, no dice. I did a bunch of reading and tried a bunch of stuff, but still nothing, it does know the device is there, not sure what socket it is talking about.... suse-121-shuttle:~ # mkdir /media/ipod suse-121-shuttle:~ # chmod 777 /media/ipod suse-121-shuttle:~ # usbmuxd suse-121-shuttle:~ # ifuse /media/ipod No device found, is it connected? <---Ipod not connected (on

No No. You shouldn't need to do anything like that.
When you connect the iPod do you get a mass-storage mount message from GNOME?
Perhaps you are missing a package, if you "zypper search ipod" what shows as installed? I don't recall what package is used to manage the ipod, I'll have to check later.
When I connect I get a pop up that asks what I want to open the pictures with, no new drives show up.
zypper search ipod returns nothing.

I would expect gtkpod to show up, I installed it with Yast.
This is all new to me, the gtkpod page mentions something about firewire???
Thanks, Mike..
I have a 'Generation 6 iPod Classic' that forces me to keep a Windoze installation available with iTunes installed because that's the only way I can use it. I think most, if not all, of the prior models worked fine under Linux but 'Generation 6' and later have encrypted firmware, making one's iTunes maintained Library inaccessible except from iTunes. I could be wrong about other models, though, so you'll want to research and confirm the case with your specific model and serial number. regards, Carl -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
