[Gtkpod-devel] [gtkpod, PRE-patch] iPod autodetection

[Jorg S. <Jor...@gm...>]

Hi everyone,

I've been playing around a bit with iPod autodetection. The code is not 
finished but usuable I think.

Start gtkpod and it will:

- automatically load all connected iPods, creating new repository when 
necessary (existing ones with the right mountpoint will be used)

- plug in an iPod later and it will be auto-loaded (a new repository 
will be created when necessary, an existing one with the right 
mountpoint will be re-used

What has to be done:

- write the repository preferences to the iPod, rather than to the 
general prefs file. Not important unless you are using the auto-sync 
feature (synchronize directories with the repository/iPod when loading).

Requires gnome-vfs to work, additionally HAL to work even better (should 
be just fine without). Re-run ./autogen.sh

Let me know how it works for you!


Cheers,


JCS.
