Well, I'd be surprised if it did, because before I was able to mount it
myself fine, I'll try though.

I have a 2.6 kernel installed and use udev. It works like this; in
/etc/udev/rules.d/udev.rules I added the following as the first rule:

BUS="scsi", SYSFS{model}="iPod ", KERNEL="sd?2", NAME="%k",
SYMLINK="ipod"

(I found this on the gtkpod-page, and yes, I do use gtkpod, works great )

After that, when I plug in my iPod it can be mounted as /dev/ipod.
