No, I haven't and it would be meaningless even if I did. If a program
doesn't like GtkPod doesn't work "right out of the box" for myself and
most others then I don't use it.

Too many have reported crashes and nonfunctioning of gtkpod on Ubuntu
12.04. In 10.04, for me, it works perfectly.

I could never figure out how to do it.  Compiling a program is beyond my
ability and interest...and patience. If there's not a step-by-step
procedure written clearly for anyone to use then I've learned to rarely
waste my time trying to follow it.
