Questions about http://l4n.clustur.com/index.php/Nanotron_3000#Testing_for_freeze
For the kernel log you are using dmesg, right? Why not clearing it before every note with "sudo dmesg -c"? The usb cable is connected _all_ the time, right? May I see the shell code that you are using on the PC? I still don't understand very well how are you determining the state of the Ipod. As far as I understand it is like this: if there is that nice message in the kernel log you keep the note for future testing, if the message is not there you are going to the next note? Why then is someone using a light sensor to check for the backlight of the Ipod? Do you have those timing specs for the 3g nano?
