Subject: Re: Need Help with iTouch and Linux
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
