Probably the most annoying thing about all of this is that when I chose 
the correct model in gtkpod on the fedora machine (before the hard drive 
died) that seemed to be last thing I did before it all started to work. 
I remember selecting 3rd gen. 4 gb nano (with video) - not the exact 
wording but all those parameters were int he description). Now, I don't 
even see that selection. It's liek it's a different version of gtkpod. 
Is the version of gtkpod that I loaded on fedora 7 via svn, different 
from the one I installed on ubuntu via the ppa repo?.
