gtkpod not recognizing ipod Nano, models are greyed out
 
I have an ipod Nano 3rd generation. I installed gtkpod:
Code:

yum install gtkpod
Several, several dependencies were installed with it and I thought "Oh good. That's a good sign". But when I try to choose my ipod model all the models are greyed out so I can't choose one. I tried doing it manually but no joy, gtk pod says "No ipod found" even though it is plugged in. I had this working with Fedora 16 but not with Fedora 18. Is there something else I need to find and install? Do I need to configure KDE to automatically mount? Thanks ahead of time.

Okay not meaning to bump the thread but I solved the problem of gtkpod not recognizing the ipod. I had to manually mount the file system with info found with
Code:

dmesg|tail
which was /dev/sdb1 and after I mounted it and ran gtkpod there it was. I hope this helps somebody.
