A friend of mine was/is having a similar problem, depending on the type of
iPod you have (Mac or Windows formatted) you'll need to make sure you have the
correct filesystem support...so if you have a Mac iPod you'll need to compile
support into the kernel (HFS+) unless there's a module that can be loaded but
I've always gone the kernel route.
With that you should be able to mount the iPod in the normal way and make use
of something like gtkPod.
