ipod nano

I use a Samsung ypt7z mp3 player and it works great on SuSe - out of the box no tweeking - but you know how kids are... I need to try to get SuSe 9.2 to work with an ipod nano. I downloaded gtkpod, and the appropriate libraries, compiled and installed it. gtkpod seems work, but I can't get it to connect to the ipod nano. It seems that the problem is that gtkpod looks for the ipod in /mnt/ipod and when I plug in the ipod nano it shows up in /media/usb...... I tried creating a file /mnt/ipod then making a symbolic link to /media/usb... Then I tried changing the mount point for gtkpod to /media/usb... neither worked. Has anyone a suggestion? Thanks, Regis
