crash in Rhythmbox Music Player: Sorry, I left out the in...

What were you doing when the application crashed? Sorry, I left out the info about the iPod. I have an iPod Shuffle (2nd gen) when I plug it in, it auto-mounts and auto-loads Rhythmbox (which immediatly crashes....sometimes). The auto-mount also fails. Although the icon to acces my iPod exists, mtab doesn't see the it.

Thanks for the bug report. This particular bug has already been reported into our bug tracking system, but please feel free to report any further bugs you find. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 358855 ***
First, sorry for the large amounts of the same bug reports....I hadn't realized I had sent so many. Second, I'm obviously not a programmer and I'm still a novice with linux. As far as the bug reports I've sent. I've found there was something buggy with the way linux was auto-mounting my iPod shuffle. It was mounting as a default floppy device and mounting it as read only (with which fstab and mtab were useless). I used windows and iIunes to reload the firmware and gnupod_INIT to prep. it for use with Linux. Rhythm box is working fine now with no crashes and my iPod mounts itself correctly. Perhaps ejecting before running mktunes or not 'ejecting' it cause some damage. Thanks for your help, sorry again for not being very terse.
