Totally not.

 How do you manage your ipod?

My sighted partner does uses iTunes on a non-Linux PC;
let me explain:
- at the VERY VERY first sync you need (/mandatory) iTunes so that the
device should be recognized and synced:
there is no way yet to do this under Gnu/Linux

- but, it's important to have a look at the libimobiledevice.org project,
  these libs and tools are now shipped with Ubuntu, they do have a ML where
  people are exchanging thos experiences in using i(Products) with the
  libimobiledevice packages.
AFAIK the iProducts may be synced with Rhythmbox, GTKpod or Amarok, all
these packs are available on your Ubuntu distro if wanted!

But I'm not sure about those usability with Orca aso!

Cf. http://www.libimobiledevice.org
or apt-cache search imobile |more

Success!

Y P

There is a program for this, and it was mentioned on this list a few weeks 
ago, but I don't have an Ipod, so did not pay attention to the name. I 
think I saw it when browsing g the synaptic package manager.

 wich software do you use on ubuntu
 to convert and copying books to the ipod 

Hi,

I use Calibre as a library management software and to convert and copy
books to my Sony PRS. Calibre supports a wide range of devices,
including the iPhone, iPad and iPod. There is a section dedicated to
those device in the FAQ [1]. Calibre is in the Ubuntu repositories and
the version in Maverick is 0.7.18 which is very close to the latest so
it should work fine.
