Re: [Banshee-List] iPod nano 8Gb volumes detected in HALbut not Banshee

[Aaron Bockover <abockover novell com>]

I should state the obvious here...

The package is not official, is unsupported, and may catch fire to your
computer, so use at your own risk. That said, if the fix I have applied
does indeed work, I will be submitting it to SP1, which will be official
and supported, etc., once SP1 is out.

If there's a problem for any reason, you can just roll back your HAL to
the FCS package, but I don't expect there to be any issues.
