My wife gave me an ipod nano 5g forChristmas.
When I plug it in a message pops up asking to initialize it. When I click yse it comes up with a lis of ipods, but the 5th generation isn’t listed. If I try clicking on the 4g nano I get an error mesage. Amarok will then see the ipod, but says there are no songs on it.
I have installed gtkpod, but it looks like it has the same problem as amarok.
My system is Opensuse 11.2
KDE 4.3
gtkpod message
Could not find iPod directory structure at '/media/SARGE'S IPO'.
If you are sure that the iPod is properly mounted at '/media/SARGE'S IPO', it may not be initialized for use. In this case, gtkpod can initialize it for you.
Do you want to create the directory structure now
Sorry f a lack of info. I have to leave for work now
I’d have a go at it. Is there instructions around or a how to?
I don’t think I have installed anything from source before.
What problems am I likely to encounter?
Open yast and go to software management. From there choose view and patterns. Then scroll down on the left-hand side and mark base development for installation then accept the changes.
All has worked until I get to the make command.
I get this message.
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
Am I missing something.
I think I am missing something. I found this.

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.
Alternatively, you may set the environment variables LIBGPOD_CFLAGS

See the pkg-config man page for more details.
It is asking me to add files to my “autoconf macro directory
or directly to your aclocal.m4 file”
How would I do this?
Thanks
First open a konsole and su to root then while in your home directory run
rm -rf libgpod
make sure that you are in your home driectory for this because this command is supposed to delete the libgpod source code that you downloaded but might delete something else if in the wrong directory.
Now download this and extract it. This file came from this post on the Ubuntu forums. Take the two files inside and put them libgpod/src if it asks you whether or not you want to overwrite existing files say yes.
http://gitorious.org/libgpod/teuf-sandbox/archive-tarball/nano5g
This source will require no patching. Just instead of downloading the regular nighly with git download this extract it and you will be able to compile it the same way. For the aclocal problem just copy everything from /usr/share/aclocal to libgpod-teuf-sandbox/m4. Ignore the previous post the link is also broken above.
Sorry I’m working away from home and I’m having trouble getting linux to log on to the motel wifi. (In widows at the moment) I will keep trying though.
