Hi,

I have an 80Gb iPod classic that I plug into to my Ubuntu 8.04 machine 
running KDE 4.1.  However, when I start amarok (ipod is plugged in and 
mounted), the iPod is not detected.  Nor can I find any way to tell 
Amarok about it.  The plasma config in the middle of amarok has a "media 
devices" entry in the list that pops up, but when I click it nothing 
happens.  Nor is the "media devices" selection available in the 
"configure amarok" dialog under the "settings" menu.

Is there some piece that is missing from my amarok install?  How can I 
get amarok to play my iPod?

libgpod3 is installed.  There is lots of debugging output coming out of 
amarok when i run it in the terminal, is there anything in the debug 
that would be useful to look for?

Any pointers are appreciated,

Thanks,
Cam
