[Bug-gnupod] problem with gnupod

[Adam Petcher]

I'm having some trouble getting gnupod to work.  The problem is that any time 
mktunes, it hangs on "Searching iPod via sysfs".  I've let it go for a few 
hours and nothing happens, so I am assuming it will hang forever.  I've tried 
restoring the iPod in iTunes, and I even tried formatting the ipod and then 
calling gnupod_INIT -- either way, it just hangs the first time mktunes is 
called.  Here are the details:

gnupod 0.99.7
iPod Classic 80 GB
Ubuntu 9.04 (jaunty)

I don't really know what other info would help.  The problem comes up whether 
the database is empty, contains a couple of songs, or contains my entire 
library.  Let me know if there is any other info that will help.
