Josh If you're feeling daring, and my apologies as I'm tight on time tonight, there was either an article or a development annoucement on Linux Weekly News on either 02/08/07 or the week previous about an app that could be run instead of iTunes.
If not, apologies as I'm trying to multi-task tonight; ever a good thing.

In neither of these can I seem to be able to create playlists on my nano, although editing existing ones worked on Rhythmbox (and they didn't show up at all on Banshee). Gtkpod couldn't find my nano because it wasn't where it was expecting, and looks all a bit rather more technical than I am looking for.

Lots of people, especially students, have iPods and I think this is an important area to look at, certainly for my friend (who was first wowed by Beryl). -- Josh Blacker http://jerichokb.wordpress.com/ -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/ -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
