Comment 3 for bug 40561

I tried both. steps to reproduce:

1) before it failed:
boot up, log in to gnome, rmmod ehci_hcd, plug in the ipod, system seems to work fine but freezes when I try to access the ipod (actually, it was enough to open nautilus with computer:/// as the location)

2) after it failed:
boot up, log into gnome, plug in the ipod, access it (this works fine for some time), see it fail (after a certain amount of read/write operations), system still works fine now, rmmod ehci_hcd, system freezes immediately.
