give up on all the tutorials they are all crap. I had tried everything that supposedly worked and none of it would. I saw a post on webupdate that said Clementine supports ipods and guess what.... for the first time in a year of failed efforts I can manage my ipod with linux. Clementine has Ubuntu packages that may or may not work I would google for a how to on debian

My daughter has a Debian testing machine and an iTouch. If I plug in the iTouch, gnome mounts it and I can open it and see folders and files. However, gtkpod can't seem to find it. She wants to put some mp3 files on her iTouch, and I thought that is what gtkpod would do for her.

I googled for some solutions for gettting gtkpod to talk to her iTouch, and found articles that talk about doing all sorts of rude things to the iTouch (ie jailbreaking it), which I assume is just old information. I found this article, http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=45679, which does not require jailbreaking the iTouch. However, since gnome already mounts the iTouch, I suspect this article is obsolete already. It talks about using lots of Debian unstable packages, but do I really need them if gnome can read the iTouch drive?

Anybody have a good recipe for getting an iTouch to talk to gtkpod with Debian testing?

Thanks!
