Hi,

This is a facepalm moment. I'm utterly failing to find the correct way to do this.

The Arch wiki entry is https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/IPod

It's out of date because "HAL has been deprecated for a while now."

Like an idiot, I managed to overlook that. And I think I got HAL sort of working. But Banshee gets "permission denied" when I try to copy music onto by iPod.

I don't even have a clue which way to go with this. As near as I can tell, only root can write to the iPod, but I had the notion that I should run Banshee as my regular user. I can't even change the ownership of the mount point:

graton# chown benfell:users /media/iPod chown: changing ownership of '/media/iPod': Operation not permitted

What now?

chown as root

Yes, I was root when I tried that. - -- David Benfell benfell@parts-unknown.org -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJP4uGYAAoJELT202JKF+xpcoYP/0OPkxYcfl8/tWNHaC3bXn8c qa5o13Jf2IHRrk/DKk7vgcy2YdxZ+Ta6ksBNyFIal1562Gk5xfT9v5CfUFqhK8WG eAjepc8/9jKFU9OfY1iVI3Kmioc+QoI4uiAuisbXoVtS8wTMy8Cl6iKF/KbcJa7q yx/lvhulabx8fQtX10nthTLKOVxgOPdXNY4Id3x3+devLblo9JNpJKxDj3Ewia+k tXW874/Bn82M7xSrVG88HweL3HgDWK+M4MJnoeE5SDn6lG34hBvJfRUTxWSocFht o181T33UsfU+6bNbw3OBZN3S6UaK0VubtRNVoxZSYLFNJ4n95Ue0KcoJl0ER2NU8 IDpx3E1xREvFgdCTtl/UGlDZv6hoQZJs2U3jCJYmpwadvUhmYcV4V+OZgUyv5TT4 Cwc0KUu3xy7qUsQr8MkrXX3rMsygf3TpPMXX3F7wXMmIjZiI1nHUDsss/99vIK0I DsOPaNv3IjmNlB1bdmwdrRaTmaUF2dfZZq6OzruRtqhI4yVlZL00GbgU/M/zmXWd 6eTBfT8Y6Sv4ExJibgdu1vCA0tZCluQ8nWKu8bCfS0jCdPSaByl76hVxbzTUS3tt 3K71kGFoh9j3Ep6RAH4Kwlx3qboLnnUfhZVZ8qmWKESdamvY2uCXSGIeVqdkjnpa zOumWXOuXvfZSpoAGmNW =LTan -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
