Description of problem: I've got udev and hal seeing the ipod, thanks to udev-095-17.fc6 (BZ # 220543). dmesg now shows this: SCSI subsystem initialized Initializing USB Mass Storage driver... scsi0 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices usb-storage: device found at 2 usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning usbcore: registered new driver usb-storage USB Mass Storage support registered. Vendor: Apple Model: iPod Rev: 1.62 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 00 usb-storage: device scan complete scsi 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg0 type 0 SCSI device sda: 3964928 2048-byte hdwr sectors (8120 MB) sda: Write Protect is off sda: Mode Sense: 68 00 00 08 sda: assuming drive cache: write through SCSI device sda: 3964928 2048-byte hdwr sectors (8120 MB) sda: Write Protect is off sda: Mode Sense: 68 00 00 08 sda: assuming drive cache: write through sda: sda1 sda2 sd 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi removable disk sda "lshal | grep -i ipod" now shows this: info.udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/storage_serial_Apple_iPod_000A2700192 DBC01' (string) info.product = 'iPod' (string) storage.serial = 'Apple_iPod_000A2700192DBC01' (string) storage.model = 'iPod' (string) block.storage_device = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/storage_serial_Apple_iPod _000A2700192DBC01' (string) etc udev and hal are happy, but Banshee still doesn't see the Nano. Bill Peck swears it works... but it doesn't over here. I've even tried libgpod-0.4.0-0.fc6 from freshrpms as he suggested... no dice. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): FC6, all updates as of today udev-095-17.fc6 banshee-0.10.12-4.fc6 libgpod-0.4.0-0.fc6 from freshrpms
I noticed that libgpod-0.4.2 came out *today*... but can't get it to compile so I can't tell if that would help me or not. Perhaps we can get libgpod updated to this version in Fedora Core 6
Joshua, I don't think libgpod is required or used by banshee. I believe your trouble is more likely with libipoddevice. Does your nano have an empty iPod_Control/Device/SysInfo file? That and other issues have been fixed in libipoddevice >= 0.5. You can find 0.5.2 in rawhide. It might be worth trying to rebuild that to see if it helps banshee find your ipod. I don't know if banshee needs to be updated along with libipoddevice or not. That said, libgpod-0.4.2 has been available in updates-testing since the 17th. It'll probably get pushed to updates very soon.
Trying a binary package I built from libipoddevice-0.5.2-1.fc7.src.rpm I'll let you know what we find.
No longer have access to iPod nanos :-(
