Is there any decent iPod management software for linux available? I have a 6th generation iPod that I use only for music and it’s really the last thing that I keep my windows partition around for. The more I use linux, the more unintuitive iTunes feels. I had tried GTKPod in the past and one other, but they didn’t support the 6th gen iPods. I’d be happy with just a CLI copy type command!

    I have a windows VM for a couple of other applications but iTunes wouldn’t detect the device was plugged in inside the VM. This was several years ago and maybe the VM landscape has changed. I could try it again.

      I just used a vm to restore my ipod yesterday. Simple Win7 VM worked like a charm. Just had to allow the usb passthrough in devices->usb. This is using virtualbox
