    For iTunes - won't work. But if you just want it for managing your iPod you can use Amarok or Banshee. They're both in apt. IF you must have iTunes then rather than dual booting you can install it in a VM using VirtualBox.

    For the video problem it could be driver related. This may not apply to Intrepid but it does apply to earlier versions. Easiest way to install drivers is to get Envy and use it to get the latest driver and install it for you.

    Tried Amarok doesnt recoginise the iPod :o oh well! Virtual Box i was having a look at that also gonna do a little bit more research on that. I installed Envy the other day but im not sure if its working correctly because of the new version.

    good call. GTK worked for my Zen too. And that one is designed for the iPod.

    Just tried it there no luck. It can be done thou with that or Amarok if your able to SSH into it, but the new version iPod Touch i have hasnt been jailbroken yet so have to wait for that.

    Thank you once again.

    Been using it for awhile now, have to say i like it alot starting to get use to it, but the one thing i cant handle is the jumpy/glitchy graphics when watching movies of tv shows.

    As i do watch alot of stuff on my computer this is a major annoyance.
