Doesn't work either. I don't think the problem is in fstab or with the
iPod, which I can use perfectly well if I mount it as root:

~# mount -o uid=1000 /dev/ipod /mnt/ipod

works perfectly. I'm not sure whether I need the uid=1000 bit, but it
doesn't hurt

No, I think something's wrong with my user-account, something that would
explain both the su problem and the mount problem; if only I knew what...
