OK, well I decided to download the latest source RPM for Fedora 12, and
rebuild it against the installed KDE 4.4.1 packages.

After installing it, I now get the Fuze drives read automatically and
I'm showing some 2,580 odd tracks on the player's SDHC card.

That has finally fixed it, not sure exactly what the problem was.

Maybe we'll see an Amarok 2.3 package in the official updates repo
soon, but I'm certainly much happier now that I can get music onto my
Fuze and the transfers seem to be as fast as they were with Amarok 1.4!

Thanks for your help folks....
