Description of problem: Fedora seems to link the iPod Touch is a camera, according to the desktop icon at least. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Using fresh install of Fedora 9 How reproducible: always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Plugin iPod Touch 2. See camera icon appear on desktop 3. Chuckle? Expected results: Tango Extras has pretty hardware icons for these. I understand the Apple stuff is proprietary, but I would think we could at least identify the hardware. Additional info:

Confirmed. Then it is possible to "open" the ipod with an empty window as the sole result. And Fedora asks if I want to import the photos from the camera, which is of course nonsense.
What's the output of gvfs-ls gphoto2://[usb:X,Y]/ (Get the exact URI from this command: gvfs-mount -l) I'm pretty sure there's a DCIM folder in the root.. which would indicate it's using the DCF system which is why we pick it up as a camera.

I don't have any photos stored on the iPod, if that makes a difference.
Right, I just checked the Apple website and there's no built-in camera like on the iPhone. The reason we pick it up and display it as a camera is because of the fact that it advertises itself as a PTP device. My guess is that the iPod Touch is pretty useless as a USB device (unless you're running OS X or Windows)... until someone manages to reverse engineer the mechanism used for updating the music player bits. When that happens we have ways of tagging the device as a music player. I'm not sure there's a bug here; the device claims to be a PTP device and we correctly identify it as such. IOW, complain to the vendor of the device. I'm closing this bug.
