I spent my best part of today trying to figure out why this happens... I took my ipod to a friends system and he's using Hardy (32bit). The system works fine and the ipod launches Amarok (System->Preferences->Preferred Appliactions changed to launch Amarok when the ipod is plugged in. I'm using Ubuntu and not Kubuntu by the way...)
I brought the ipod back home (fresh install 64bit Hardy) and the ipod doesn't mount automatically. Right-clicking on the icon under "Computer" does not mount it either. However, if I install "pmount" and do: pmount /dev/sdf3 The device mounts properly and Amarok recognizes it. So, I'm almost certain this has something to do with gvfs*. Ah, under the Sessions control panel there is a session that's supposed to launch "gnome-volume-manager" like: /usr/lib/gnome-volume-manager/gnome-volume-manager --sm-disable However, this does not seem to be running, and running this by hand does nothing. I'm not sure if or how gvfs works with gnome-volume-manager. What I do know is that this is all getting to be too damn complicated. Usually complex systems break more often (and harder) than simpler ones! -- Ubuntu has stopped recognizing my ipod https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/121203 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
