Charging iPod / Listening to music

Hi there,

When I plug my iPod using the USB cable I get the 'Do not
disconnect' screen on the ipod. It's great because I can see the ipod
is charging. But to listen to music I do not understand what I need to
do. I tried:

$ eject /dev/sda
-> return an error

Then I tried :

$ sudo rmmod usb_storage

It works, I can listen to music again, but even if the cable is
pluged it does not seems to be charging...

and doing a 'modprobe usb_storage' leads me to the 'do not
disconnect' screen back again.

Using: debian stable, dmesg returns:
...
scsi 0:0:0:0: Direct-Access Apple iPod 1.62 PQ: 0 ANSI: 0

Thanks for suggestion,

Mathieu
