In fc3 and fc4 I would use FireWire with my iPod (mini - first generation). USB mounting would not work - but :shrug: - I like FireWire I use gtkpod (my own build) - with special files to tell HAL not to mount it, create a /dev/ipod symlink to the real device node, autofs to mount it, console.perms to eject (so the do not disconnect goes away) etc. Then I let gtkpod do the mount/unmount - which would only work for users in the group gtkpod (which consists of just me). It worked well - in fc3 and fc4. Purpose of which was to make sure iPod is not mountable when left docked and I'll let visiting kids use comp to play xgalaga or surf or whatever. -=- In fc5/devel - it would not create the /dev/ipod symlink - perhaps a change in udev means I need to update my udev file. So I removed all my custom crap that I had made (packages as an rpm). Should have then mounted on desktop - it did not. Hardware browser saw it - but attempts to manually mount failed claiming a filesystem error. Switched to USB and it mounted perfectly (though after syncing - my mouse sometimes doesn't work unless unplugged and replugged) Anyone else having firewire iPod issues in devel? Or is it just me? I know FireWire is somewhat touchy in Linux. Anyone know of a solution? I could set up my scripts to do usb mounting so only I can mount it, but I'd rather get the FireWire thing working - I much prefer FireWire (sorry apple, won't be buying a video iPod anytime soon :p) -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
