The problem is compounded, in this case, by the fact that shadowtroop has a 3rd gen iPod Touch which has been jailbroken.
Apparently gtkpod doesn't play well with jailbroken iPods.
There's a potential fix explained here -

Or there's another hack described here, which apparently makes your device look like an earlier model.

This appears to be a modification to the filesystem on the iPod, itself. And to be able to do this, apparently you need SSH, FileZilla, or iFile on Mac.I just upgraded to the dev team 1.1.3 jailbreak and to use it with gtkpod you have to modify the mount command and change /var/root/Media to /var/mobile/Media in iPod convenience's scripts. After that it will work with gtkpod again.

Whoa there. That's 1.1.3. Which is ancient. Media has been in the mobile folder since at least 3.0, so that apps can access music (Apps can't access anything in root, whereas they have limited access in mobile)
And yeah, that's where my music is.
If you need me to, I can post specific paths of the music and database paths (I don't know what the database file is though)

ifuse error loading shared libraries
Hello all,
Thank you tempestuous for putting in some great work. I am having some trouble following your instructions. At the step:
ifuse /mnt/ipod
I get the following error:
# ifuse: error while loading shared libraries: libtasn1.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Up until this point I seemed to be connected with an appropriate serial number. Any help would be much appreciated.
Computer: Toshiba L735 - 11W
OS: Puppy Linux (Slacko 5.3)
Best,
Sandy

I have a new iPod nano (6th generation) which is great but I'm having trouble getting gtkpod to see it.
I tried the following:
It does mount ok and I can view and play files on the iPod just using rox.
My model, MC688ZP, doesn't appear to be in the list in gtkpod.
It works fine in iTunes but I'm not interested in booting Windows.
gtkpod looks really nice and I would like to use it.
Any ideas?
BTW there is a later version now. 2.1.0
http://www.gtkpod.org/wiki/Home
I wonder if the new version would recognise my iPod?
Is the package hard to compile? I suspect so.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
I tried the following:
Code: Select all
/usr/sbin/usbmuxd -u -U root -v -v
But the device was not found.Now open /var/log/messages in Geany, and at the end you should see that your device has been recognised, with text like this -
Code:
usbmuxd[12707]: [4] Initializing USB
Found new device with v/p 05ac:1290 at 3-68
...
Connected to v1.0 device 1 on location 0x30044 with serial number be2975afb30b6db9025f95261b9e0a7041044661

No, that version will only work with gtk3, which none of the current Puppies have.smokey01 wrote:there is a later version now. 2.1.0
2.0.2 is still the most recent gtk2-compatible front-end for gtkpod.
I suspect what you really need is an upgrade to the underlying libgpod. I can do this, but probably not until after Christmas.
In the meantime, it would be helpful if, after plugging in your iPod, you could tell me what you see in /var/log/messages relating to "usbmuxd".
usbmuxd did not load automatically
I loaded it as described.
Then checked Pprocess again, this time it was there.
Now checked /var/log/messages, the results are:
I guess I can't proceed any further until my device is recognised.
Thanks
I loaded it as described.
Code: Select all
/usr/sbin/usbmuxd -u -U root -v -v

I had a crack at compiling libgpod 0.8.0 from here:
http://www.gtkpod.org/wiki/Libgpod#Source
But I failed as my skills are a little short of the requirements.
I also noticed that 0.8.2 is available.
tempestuous what version libgpod did you include in your gtkpod 2.0.2 package?

Sorry to drag this old one up but I'm stumped.
I'm using Lucid with my iPhone 4
I can follow the instructions from tempestuous until I have to mount with ifuse. Then I get the message:
Failed to connect to lockdownd service on the device.
Try again. If it still fails try rebooting your device.
A reboot has no effect.
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? iPhones aren't required to be jailbroken to work with GTKP are they?

redandwhitestripes and Lobster,# ifuse /mnt/ipod
Failed to connect to lockdownd service on the device.
It's clear that Apple has added new layers of "technical roadblocks" to its latest iOS 5-based devices!
I see that a new version of libimobiledevice (the main underlying library of gtkpod) was released just 2 weeks ago, so I just recompiled the gtkpod package now, and uploaded the new dotpet here (4MB) -
http://minipc.org/ipup/download/gtkpod- ... il2012.pet
Please test - it will overwrite any older versions of gtkpod.
As before, you must also install the libanjuta dotpet -
http://minipc.org/ipup/download/libanju ... Puppy5.pet
And optionally, you may install the gstreamer dotpet for embedded media player -

Thanks for new compile tempestuous
Using Slacko 5.3.1 (and the Slack required
gtkpod-Slacko-libs.pet) and the new compile
Everything OK up to here
Could not find libraries in package manager (including trying a few Slackware one)
The gtkpod Ipod manager is running despite the missing libraries . . .
but not accessing the ipad 3
Using Slacko 5.3.1 (and the Slack required
gtkpod-Slacko-libs.pet) and the new compile

Such error messages are not surprising - this gtkpod package relies on complex interactions between many libraries, and since I first compiled gtkpod-2.0.2 back in 2010, Lucid 5.1.x has been the base ...Lobster wrote:Code: Select all

... you need to be running this package on Puppy Lucid for any decent chance of success.

Many thanksLobster, on second thought - here's a quick way to get gtkpod working in Slacko -
just copy over the libcrypto and libssl libraries from Lucid to Slacko; here's a dotpet -
Am I closer?
Code: Select all
# ifuse /mnt/ipod
fuse: mountpoint is not empty
fuse: if you are sure this is safe, use the 'nonempty' mount option
#
Could not get any files transferred or viewed . . . so far
Thanks again
