In Mac and Windows, you can easily sync your iPhone/iPod Touch with iTunes, but in Linux, there is no easy way to sync your iDevice’s music library with any of the media player. Even if you are willing to jailbreak your phone, there are still plenty of complicated steps that you need to do to get the syncing to work. With the release of iFuse (and a bunch of other library), things have changed. Not only can you mount your iPhone as an external drive in Ubuntu, you can also use it to sync your music library with Rhythmbox. The following tutorial only works in Ubuntu Karmic (and other karmic-derivative distro).
Can you use this to copy files across from a Linux PC, and then play them on the iPod or iPhone? Or is it still true that on some versions of iPhone or some iPods, you will, if you try to change the database on the iX and thus enable playing, wipe the database? Because Gtkpod only works on version 2 machines not on version 3?
