I have tested and verify that this patch works with three(+?) bugs.

First, if you have songs on the ipod and delete any, they still play in the shuffle. You have to add a song for the others to be flushed.

Second, when you delete songs off of the ipod, the files remain on the physical flash. You can see them in a terminal and using nautilus. You cannot see them in RB. I don't know if this is a feature to allow faster deleting of files and when you are out of space old files will automaticly be removed. I have not tested this. If this is a bug and the ipod fills up, all you have to do is reformat in itunes and be back with a blank ipod.

Third, if you load the ipod with music from RB and everything is working and then you open the ipod in itunes, it will appear blank. itunes will show the used disk space, but will not show the music.

So adding music finally works correctly, but deleting has problems. Then there is iTunes which at this point in time you are better off just formatting it once and then using RB the rest of the time.
