I've got an ipod shuffle and can't get it to work. I have the following 
in /etc/fstab:
/dev/da0s1              /mnt/ipod       msdos   rw,noauto       0       0
The mount point is owned by my user and I have write permission to it and I 
can mount the ipod and even copy files to it (though they won't play).

When I try to connect to it in amarok (1.3.9), it just says the device "Could 
not find Device, please mount it and try again." This happens regardless of 
wether the device is mouned or not.

Did you have to do anything else to get your ipod to work?

Cheers,
