I also can transfer files to my silver ipod nano (generation 3 with 4G ),
however, I also cannot play the set of mp3 files (that are school lectures) 
via the nano.

meaning that when i look at it in

directory

/mnt/usb/iPod_Control/Music/ 
i see a number of directories
f00 f01 f02 f03 f04 f05 

and i see the following

ls f00
gtkpod041026.mp3  gtkpod288554.mp3  gtkpod561552.mp3  gtkpod783926.mp3
gtkpod224305.mp3  gtkpod295222.mp3  gtkpod742088.mp3  gtkpod799348.mp3
gtkpod255692.mp3  gtkpod529503.mp3  gtkpod776322.mp3

where these were created via gtkpod.

However I see nothing listed in the music database. How can I use
the ipod software to select and listen to them on the ipod?

I can play them using gqmpeg when i am plugged in, but that is not the same thing...
