I'm sure I'd look into playing with it... Incidentally, you're with HFS+ or vfat?

in the fedora core 1 world i had somewhat dependable ipod use - with the rescan-scsi-bus.sh business. in the fedora core 2 world i have had nothing but misery - with and without the firewire enabled kernels...with and without the usb adapter. basically seems to be a roll of the dice whether i will get back '/dev/sda2 is not a block device' when i mount...even after the dmesg output identifies the ipod. any advice? i'm near giving up. if so, reply here, the email address i provided is clearly fake

Well, Firewire isn't common on PCs - for instance, I only have one PC with Firewire. All other relatively new boxes lack Firewire... so I presume PC means USB2 at least :P

where does the notion that firewire=mac, usb=windows/pc come from? at least in germany, more or less all "ready to run" pc packages from the discounters have both...

I'm using mine on Linux (on PPC) with firewire and HFS+ without a problem!

am working on a thing that'll let the "do not disconnect" sign go away when you unmount the filesystem :)

gtkpod rocks.
