Yeah, I installed that before I got the error. apt-get install vorbis-tools. 
Funny you should mention that. I actually installed it to support an 
application called audio-convert.That app is working for me. I noticed that 
gtkpod does not have the iPod that is mine - it was called iPod nano 4 GB 
video (or close to that) when we did the svn installs (et al) on the fedora 
7 machine (before the hard drive died). I probably have to do all that svn 
stuff again - no?
