Bug Description
Binary package hint: rhythmbox
I have two iPods (one for me, one for the wife). We use the iPods primarily for technical podcasts (although we understand that some people use them for music as well).
I am running Rhythmbox 0.11.6 on Ubuntu Intrepid.
The iPods are:
iPod Nano (2GB 2nd Generation | Model No.: A1199) <-- this is the problem device
iPod Nano (8GB 4th Generation | Model No.: A1285)
The 8GB iPod Nano works flawlessly with the podcast aggregator; however, the 2GB (older) iPod Nano keeps getting the following error:
"Error transferring track - Could not write to resource".
Everything else works as advertised, and all contents on the iPod are visible, etc. from within Rhythmbox and other applications designed to work with the iPod.
The 2GB iPod Nano has the same problem (podcasts cannot be written to it) with all of the other podcast aggregators I have found, which leads me to believe that the compatibility bug extends beyond rhythmbox. (We have tried Amarok, gtkpod, Songbird, gpodder, etc. with no luck)
If you are aware of a workaround, patch, or something obvious I may have overlooked, please advise.

if you have the issue with more than one software, could be the ipod which is on read only mode or that the library is somewhat broken, re assigning to libgpod for now, thanks.
