Clementine & ipod

[Duskao]

Hello,
just wondering if anybody else is having issues with Clementine recognizing when an ipod is mounted? It's a gen2 nano. I was looking it up and it should work with clementine, I made sure I have the prerequisites needed, they actually seem to come with Pardus.

As I don't have an Ipod......  I can't test this

Ok, so what are some good MP3 players that do work with Linux/Pardus? The ability to transfer files/music to and from the device as an iPod does with iTunes on Windows or Mac.

I'm mostly listening classical music, 
and I am using a Cowon: http://www.cowonglobal.com/
It supports Linux (Pardus) and using "Flac" is sounds much better than iPod..

It's possible to use an iPod without iTunes but it has to be jailbroken first. One way to do that is with Rockbox http://www.rockbox.org/ You'll have to compile the program though. I don't know much else about it.

Rockbox is to be install on the Ipod not on the system, its an alternative OS for the Ipod.

As I don't have this hardware, I can't tell anything about this.
Isn't Rockbox a software package to be able to make contact with Ipod and similar devices

Is there any way I can help contribute?

Yes there is.
After studying/reading Pardus developer base and/or Compiling Software and Packaging from the Wiki and/or
 Buch: "pisi --howto
You can start   creating your first actions.py and pspec.xml files.

Examples of these files can be found at  http://packages.pardus.org.tr/ (select one > Source Packages > select one > Build files) and pardususer.de build-files.
And to build the package, only a simple

Code:

sudo pisi bi pspec.xml -y

is sufficient to create the package (or view the errors that are present/not solved).

You're awesome!

NO, I am only   with my toys.

Correct. Once you install that on your iPod, you no longer need iTunes to sync it.

@Atolboo, Thanks for the info.

It's more than that. It's an awesome music player, better that what it replaces and since it's open source, it's compatible with all the music players. See here: http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/WhyRockbox

You do need to install the Rockbox installer on Linux in order to install it on an iPod.
