[Gtkpod-questions] planning on updating iPod; any reason not to?

[<ub...@gm...>]

Hello,
I have never updated my iPod software. But recently I noticed that
when my 5th gen video iPod is on pause, the screen doesn't power off.
Yes, the backlight is off, but the power is still on.

I'm afraid this is what causes the power to get totally depleted.

I've heard from someone that updating his iPod to version 1.2 solved
this problem. So, on a Windows computer, I am planning on updating my
iPod software from the original 1.0 to version 1.2.

I'd like to know whether we will have any problems using our Ipod as
linux users, and when syncing with gtkpod.

Please advise.


Thank you.
