This issue has been discussed in https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9311 and http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/hal/2006-October/006412.html and a fix has already been commited to upstream udev ( http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/hotplug/udev.git;a=commitdiff;h=2658afdcf147afd384e27f0ac9019e27de7ba397 ). However for the meantime I propose to include the patch within the ebuild. I will append the needed files. Procedure: Copy /usr/portage/sys-apps/hal to the appropriate location in your local portage overlay. Download hal-0.5.7.1-r3.ebuild and files/hal-0.5.7.1-via-raid-fix.patch and place them in your overlay. # ebuild hal-0.5.7.1-r3.ebuild digest # emerge hal (of course hal-0.5.7.-r3 is masked ~ )... Hope this helps anybody...

Sigh... yay for bugspam.
How was this original? This has a higher bug number... (read... $bug+1)... Stop clicking Submit so many darn times.
I don't want to step on any toes or anything, but it would sure be nice if this patch could get into portage, regardless of the reporters' somewhat silly behaviour :) I have an iPod Nano 2G as well, and maintain a local ebuild to fix this problem.
Fixed in hal-0.5.7.1-r4
Please reopen, I'm actually using: sys-apps/hal-0.5.7.1-r5 sys-fs/udev-104-r11 The script available on http://banshee-project.org/Troubleshooting/iPod/RaidBug reports that the bug is still here :( ************************* WARNING ************************* * This iPod suffers from the volume.fsusage=raid bug. * * As such, it cannot be used in Banshee. This is not a * * Banshee or gnome-volume-manager bug.

I'm using sys-apps/hal-0.5.9.1 but the problem is still here. *please* reopen this bug!
I assume this is rather a bug in the script from http://banshee-project.org/Troubleshooting/iPod/RaidBug than in the hal-ebuild! I'm using hal-0.5.9 too and my Ipod nano works flawlessly with any app so far. I also tried the mentioned script and it also tells me, that my ipod would suffer from the bug - however my ipod gets detected correctly and works perfectly!

Have you tried with banshee player?
The issue is in the Banshee script. It still spits out the error when newer HALs work just fine with those iPods. I'm willing to bet if he actually tried it, that it would work.

When I plug my Ipod nano banshee reports: Information: [03/07/2007 16.27.59] (Mass Storage Support Ignoring iPod) - The USB mass storage audio player support ignored an iPod. Either Banshee's iPod support is broken or missing, or the iPod itself may be corrupted.
