Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

Here is my situation. No matter what packages I tried to install/remove/reinstall I can't get any player (banshee amarok rhythmbox exaile clementine) to sync with my iPhone. It was working once, out of the box, the first time I installed arch + gnome & gnome-extra. Then it stopped working. Now I got a fresh install again, and kde and when I connect the phone, i get the devices notification with 2 options. Open Gwenview for photos, or to browse with dolphin, but NOTHING shows on the media players.
I've tried loads of things, any help would be very much appreciated. I know that you'll probably ask for logs or stuff, so please ask for them and I'll post everything you ask me to.
So far what i've been able to do is to manualy mount the iphone doing this steps:
sudo usbmuxd -f -v
ifuse /media/iPhone
Doing this I got gtkpod to load my phone, i can play my songs, but whenever i try to sync adding songs it takes VEEERY long,
and my aim is to make it work with banshee, rhythmbox or clementine. If anyone knows anything about how to achieve that please help me
