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:

its not possible to listen and charge an ipod on any platform with the
"ipod firmware". I went through this many years ago. Maybe look at
rockbox?


I'm not sure what you mean by this but we listen to the ipod in the
car all the time while its hooked to a charger.

Because the charger is not sending data (this is as far as I
understood). Apparently you can even have a pure power USB (no data)
from your pc somehow...

I'll try the solution of amarok + kdeeject tonight.

thanks everybody.
